Artworks classification

Original Artwork

Original Artwork refers to any work that is considered authentic and not a copy or imitation of the original works of an artist. Original artwork can be any type of painting, sculpture, performance, or other media. There are many types of original media. Mixed media includes oil, acrylic, and watercolor paintings. For workshop paintings that bear evidence of master craftsmanship, this attribution must be further qualified. While they may be less valuable for different reasons, reproductions and copies have had a tremendous impact on our experience. They reach a greater audience than originals and act as a tonic against commodification. Original Artwork could also refer to the first work, which is always preceding all others. It could also refer to a prototype or a model from which other works can be made. Each work bears great similarities to the original.

Jean Gounin

France

Jean Gounin, a contemporary French painter, experienced a transformative moment in 1969 when he encountered the surrealist works of Max Ernst, followed by the captivating creations of Yves Tanguy, Wifredo Lam, and Roberto Matta, among others. Surrealism served as a revelation for Gounin, coinciding with a period rich in artistic and cultural revolutions, encompassing music, political awareness, and beyond.

Since settling in Île de France in 1980, Gounin has dedicated himself to the meticulous exploration of his improbable worlds through the medium of oil painting. Blending elements of figuration and abstraction, he approaches his canvases with a profound sense of freedom and expression.

Gounin's creative process begins with the formation of a diagram, laying the groundwork for the composition to come. With delicate brushes in hand, he improvises on freshly laid layers of paint, guided by his mood and intuition. His objective is to evoke an atmosphere of mystery, while remaining the primary spectator of his own creations.

Central to Gounin's artistic philosophy is the belief that slowness aligns harmoniously with an introspective and meditative approach. In each of his paintings, titles refrain from directly describing the depicted images. Instead, they function akin to poems, contributing to the overall poetic environment surrounding his work.
