About the Item

Jean Charles-Blais' “Très Facile” (1986) is a powerful etching that showcases the artist's skill in capturing the human form through minimalist lines and stark contrasts. This work, part of a limited edition of 25, is numbered 9 of 25 and is in excellent condition. Measuring 25.5 x 19.5 inches (64.8 x 49.5 cm), the etching is further enhanced by the Chine Collé technique, which adds depth and texture to the piece, highlighting the intricacy of Blais' line work. The composition is a striking portrayal of a human figure, rendered in a style that is both abstract and evocative. The figure's hands are shown gripping an object, possibly a tool or a piece of wood, against a backdrop that suggests movement and tension. The simplicity of the lines, combined with the textured application of the Chine Collé, creates a powerful visual impact, drawing the viewer into the scene and inviting contemplation of the emotions and actions depicted. Jean Charles-Blais is known for his ability to convey deep meaning through deceptively simple forms. In “Très Facile,” the artist explores themes of labor, struggle, and perseverance, using the human body as a vessel for expressing these universal experiences. The work’s monochromatic palette and minimalistic approach enhance its emotional resonance, making it a compelling addition to any collection. As part of the Disney Contemporary Resort Collection, “Très Facile” holds a distinguished place within a curated selection of contemporary artworks that celebrate innovation, craftsmanship, and cultural reflection. The Disney Contemporary Resort is renowned for its commitment to showcasing art that challenges conventions and inspires viewers, making Blais’ work a fitting addition to this collection. For collectors and admirers of contemporary art, “Très Facile” by Jean Charles-Blais offers a unique opportunity to own a work by an artist whose contributions to modern art are both significant and enduring. The piece’s connection to the Disney Contemporary Resort enhances its cultural and historical significance, making it a valuable addition to any collection. Whether displayed in a personal or public setting, this etching will undoubtedly captivate viewers with its bold simplicity and profound expression, serving as a testament to Blais’ mastery of the etching medium.
