AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

JM ROBERT – Black and White #2, 2023
Mixed media on canvas
40 × 30 × 2 cm
Signed lower right
Unique work


With Black and White #2, JM Robert demonstrates the full strength of his expressive portraiture through a deliberately restrained monochrome palette. Built from layers of black, white and subtle greys, the composition focuses entirely on emotion, gesture and contrast.
The female face emerges gradually from a succession of energetic brushstrokes, drips, splashes and partially erased marks. The artist plays with light and shadow to create a striking visual tension, allowing the portrait to oscillate between realism and abstraction.
The fragmented treatment of the face, combined with the raw energy of the paint application, gives the work a powerful contemporary presence. The absence of colour reinforces the intensity of the gaze and highlights the richness of the textures and materials.
A compelling example of JM Robert's work, where spontaneity and control coexist in a highly expressive composition.
About the artist
JM Robert is a French contemporary artist whose work revolves around portraiture and human expression. Drawing inspiration from urban art, contemporary figurative painting and expressionism, he creates works distinguished by their gestural energy, textured surfaces and emotional depth.
His portraits are instantly recognizable through their dynamic brushwork, layered compositions and ability to capture both strength and vulnerability. Exhibited in several French galleries, his work is increasingly appreciated by collectors seeking contemporary figurative art with a strong visual identity.
