Cheriet Amar - Christ

A popular iconography throughout the history of Western art, the Crucifixion has its origins in the early Christian era and has developed over the centuries, culminating in the most recent expressions of contemporary art. The traditional iconography of Jesus on the cross has countless variations, from the simplest, featuring only the crucified Jesus Christ, to the version accompanied by the "mourners," the Madonna and Saint John the Evangelist. In the Middle Ages, Crucifixion scenes began to become increasingly elaborate: thieves' crosses were added, and, gradually, more and more figures were added, until they became the subject of large choral scenes.

In this work, Cheriet Amar, while remaining consistent with her figurative language and research focused on formal values, achieves a more expressionistic style. The subject is more synthetic and essential, and the plastic component is diminished. The color delineates the forms with few glazes.

As we can see from an analysis of this work, Cheriet Amar is a remarkable performer. The beauty of his works stems not only from his refined technique but also from his use of subtle chromatic harmonies.
