PAINTINGS FROM NEW YORK 1999: THE DUALITY SERIES, is presenting a Miscellaneous selection of a new series of small works on paper: Duality, monotype and 6 editions of 6 prints, acrylic hand silkscreened on Serishi paper, 28 x 25 cm. About the work : "The erotic image never leaves us indifferent; it has a role and a function, hence its attraction, its violence, its perversity. It directly touches the spectator's soul. The libido represents both freedom and obligation: freedom to act as an individual and obligation to reproduce as a species. Art and Eroticism stand in opposition to society organized around work, thus becoming sulfurous, taboo. The more societies work, the less individuals achieve emotional and sexual climax, and this imbalance lodges itself between conscious reality and subconscious aspiration..."
This body of art works have been completed at the Long Island City (queens, NY) artist's studio, were Jean-Pierre lived between 1995 and 2003.
