Stephane Lovighi-Bourgogne
French Expressionist Self Portrait. Oil on Canvas.

1995

About the Item

Expressionist oil on canvas self portrait of the artist Stéphane LOVIGHI-BOURGOGNE. The painting is signed bottom right and is signed and dated to the back of the canvas. Presented in a period carved and gilded oval wood frame. A magnificent and strong 'tour de force' self portrait full of colour and vigour. There is an energy to the brushstrokes and use of colour. When making portraits and self-portraits, Expressionist artists seek to communicate meaning or emotional experience more than to create a faithful likeness of themselves or their sitters. The movement primarily started in Germany and Austria during the 1910s and 1920s, and still reeling from the carnage of World War I, they were interested in capturing their subjects’ psychological states. They used formal methods such as distortion, non-naturalistic colours, and unusual settings to help to achieve this. With this beautiful portrait by Stéphane LOVIGHI-BOURGOGNE the movement is still alive and well. Stéphane LOVIGHI-BOURGOGNE is an 'autodidacte' French painter born in February 1968. He became interested in drawing and painting very early in his childhood. He grew up in Marseille, before starting his career as an artist in Paris. Back in the Var, in Cotignac, he set up his first workshop there in 1993. His works are present in many private collections, but also in public collections including the permanent collection of the Estrine Museum. LOVIGHI-BOURGOGNE's paintings have been extensively exhibited including: Galerie ART 27, Brignoles, Var, 1993 Galerie Jas de la Rimade, Carcès, Var, 1995 Espace Guetty, exposition collective avec Jorge Ottermin et Guy Rubellia, Paris, 1995 Galerie Jas de la Rimade, Carcès, Var, 1996 Salon de la Jeune Peinture, Courbevoie, Paris, 1996 Galerie Restaurant L’Esquisse, Genève, 1996 Cabinet d’Avocats F.
