Jacques Villon Animal Prints

French, 1875-1963
Jacques Villon was born Gaston Duchamp in 1875. He was the oldest brother of the artists Marcel Duchamp, Suzanne Duchamp-Crotti and the sculptor Raymond Duchamp-Villon. Initially a law student, in 1894 he went to Paris to study art. It was there that he met Henri Toulouse-Lautrec and other influential artists in Paris, and changed his name to Jacques Villon, after the poet. Villon made prints of some of the most well-known belle-époque portraits and genre scenes of the early twentieth century. Around 1911, he came under the influence of Picasso and other cubists, and became a leading exponent of the style, exhibiting in the 1913 Armory Show in New York. In 1922, the Galerie Bernheim-Jeune commissioned Villon to produce a series of color aquatints after 38 major nineteenth- and twentieth-century paintings. This series included works by Pierre Auguste Renoir, Henri Matisse, Pablo Picasso, Paul Cezanne, Georges Braque, Raoul Dufy, Amadeo Modigliani, Edouard Manet, Pierre Bonnard, and others. Artists who were alive at the time of the printing collaborated with Villon, and signed the prints. The project took ten years to complete. Several of these prints are valued highly today, and some went on to be reproduced by the Louvre Museum as photo-etchings. Villon's 'cubist' etchings, with their characteristic cross-hatching, are amongst the most renowned prints of the twentieth century. Jacques Villon's long career brought him fame. The diverse nature of his paintings, from end-of-the-century portraits to cubist and abstract styles to graphic works, made him a major figure in twentieth-century art. He was made a Grand Officer of the Légion d'Honneur, and upon his death in 1963, and he was given a state funeral.

Surreal Portrait of Mr. Cabbage on Purple Background. 25 Limited Edition Print
By Natasha Lelenco
Located in FISTERRA, ES
"Surreal Portrait of Mr. Cabbage on Purple Background" is a limited edition high-quality Dibond direct UV Print, part of the "Fetiches" series by Natasha Lelenco. This intriguing piece combines Lelenco’s distinctive style of anthropomorphic portraiture with surrealism, featuring a figure with a cabbage head wearing a yellow hat against a vibrant purple background. The piece reflects the artist’s exploration of biophilia, where humanity is portrayed as an integral part of nature rather than its focal point. Each print, numbered 25 of 25, captures a fusion of botanical and anthropomorphic elements, resulting in a visually arresting and conceptually rich artwork. Lelenco has carefully hand-finished each print, adding subtle details and enhancing the vivid colors. The prints are varnished, signed, and numbered on the back, and come ready to hang with a system that creates the illusion of the artwork floating on the wall. Customers can also choose to frame the piece if desired. The artwork presents a surreal and whimsical figure with a cabbage for a head, flanked by insects and adorned with a yellow beanie, all set against a bold purple background. This blend of natural elements and surrealist imagery makes the piece both visually striking and thought-provoking, encouraging viewers to contemplate the deeper connections between nature, identity, and the absurd. The high-quality Dibond direct UV Print, finished and varnished by the artist herself, ensures durability and brilliant color retention, making this piece a lasting and valuable addition to any art collection. As with all pieces in the "Fetiches" series, this edition can stand alone or be combined with others to create a cohesive display. Natasha Lelenco’s "Fetiches" series skillfully merges portraiture and surrealism, utilizing a meticulous accumulation of botanical and anthropomorphic forms. These elements are interwoven with thematic explorations that delve into biophilia, kitsch aesthetics, and the surreal. Drawing from her personal history, Lelenco constructs a dialogue between memory and imagination, bringing new life to fragments of the past to challenge conventional narratives. The psychological depth and classical influences in her work create a seamless blend between Renaissance portraiture and contemporary expression. Her "Fetiches" series notably echoes the artistic legacy of Italian painter Giuseppe Arcimboldo, solidifying its place in the realm of contemporary art.
