About the Item

Title: The Billiard Player Artist: Anonymous Technique: Oil on canvas Dimensions: 39.4 x 31.9 in Period: c. 2000 Condition: Good Art Movement: Contemporary Figurativism, Neofiguration Description of the Artwork This painting depicts a billiards scene in an indoor setting, featuring a corpulent man dressed in a yellow suit, green tie, and hat. He holds a billiard cue while adjusting his tie, with an expression of surprise or bewilderment. Beside him, another character, slimmer and dressed in black, points at the billiard table with an emphatic gesture, suggesting a moment of tension or discussion. In the background, a calendar displaying an image of a voluptuous woman in a red dress sitting on a bed adds a humorous touch to the composition. Warm earthy tones dominate the scene, contrasting with the vibrant green of the billiard tables. The painting is stylistically associated with Contemporary Figurativism with influences from Neofiguration, characterized by exaggerated volumetric figures and an expressive approach. The artwork carries a clear satirical intention and a narrative atmosphere, blending realism with stylization to emphasize irony and playfulness in the scene. Similar Artists This artwork shares stylistic similarities with: Fernando Botero (for his exploration of exaggerated volume in human figures). René Magritte (for his theatrical and narrative-driven compositions). Diego Rivera (for his treatment of human figures with robust proportions). John Currin (for his exaggerated figurative style and social critique).
