Malcolm Liepke Figurative Paintings

American, b. 1953

Malcolm Liepke is an American figurative painter born in 1953 and raised in Minneapolis. Inspired by the work of artists such as Edgar Degas, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Diego Velázquez, Liepke creates lush and sensual portraits. Using a specific method of wet-on-wet oil painting, Liepke’s loose and fluid brushstrokes create intimately voyeuristic portrayals of young men and women. While there is a highly sexual nature to many of his works, Liepke’s interest is in the emotional intensity of his subject’s gaze. Says the artist, “the emotional contact you get from looking at someone’s face is what inspires my work.”

Hercules and Omphale, Old Master Painting, Mannerism, Baroque, Mythology, Prague

Located in Greven, DE

Hercules and Omphale Oil on panel, 52 x 41 cm According to legend, Hercules had to make atonement and became a slave to the Lydian queen Omphale. When she found out who her slave was, she married him. Falling for his mistress and made effeminate by the luxury of court life, the former hero allowed himself to become the laughing stock of the court. He dressed in women's clothes, spun wool and did other women's work, whereas Omphale wore his lion's skin and carried a wooden club. When the time of punishment was over, the hero realised his delusion and left Omphale. So far, the painting could not be clearly assigned to an artist. Nevertheless, it impresses with its fluid and convincing painting, whose colourfulness and conception are reminiscent of the Prague School around Bartholomäus Spranger. This work follows an engraving and an etching made by Michel Dorigny in 1643 after a design by Simon Vouet. It shows the same scene but the print differs in minor details from the present painting (see e.g. the head of the lion) and the treatment of the faces seems to be painted more detailed and refined. So far there is no painting...
