I saw this today in a teeny tiny art gallery in the Marais when I got lost on my walk. The artist is Gael Darrinche. He is only 38 years old. He studied at the Ecole Nationale Superieure des Beaux Arts in Paris. The painting does not have a frame per the artists instructions. LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT. The description reads, " This is a work of the very famous self-portrait of Dürer in ricin, a contemporary of Béatus Rhénanus, a humaniste of the first part of the 16th century. " The artist takes the original portraits and reinterpretes them in a contemporary medium.
Price 7000 euros.
