Michel Jamart - Untitled

Animal depictions in art have ancient origins, even appearing in primitive cave paintings. For religious reasons, various types of animals appear in the works of various ancient civilizations. It was especially in the Middle Ages, within the International Gothic style, that animal depictions became widespread as true life portraits, both within works of art and in notebooks of drawings and sketches. The presence of animals as subjects in art remained constant until the contemporary era.

The style of painter Michel Jamart, in much of his work, is characterized by the development of a strongly expressionist language. The artist seeks to go beyond what is perceived by the senses to extrapolate the true essence of reality and communicate it on canvas in a lively and dramatic manner. For this reason, through the application of color, he develops a highly synthesised process that reduces his subjects to dense, material layers of paint, in which the painter's emotion is also the protagonist, conveyed through his brutal gestures. All these elements together constitute the expressionistic power of Michel Jamart's painting. This power is also based on a specific aesthetic choice that reaffirms the dramatic tone of his works: a preference for an accentuated monochrome, from which the images emerge almost with difficulty, establishing a struggle with the pictorial material.

Michel Jamart is a Belgian artist born in 1922. His pictorial production is expressed in an original language that tends towards expressionist and abstract.
