Description from the seller
A brewery at dawn, burgundy leather banquettes, a brass bar, gray and white checkered tiles. On the banquette, a woman with black glasses, a checked men’s jacket tossed over bare skin, a white untied tie, legs crossed, patent stilettos. A glass of water in front of her, nothing else. And on the tile, a meter away, a rooster — white, black, bright red comb — looking at her as if it has something to tell her.
Le Yack ne justifie rien: the rooster is there, she does not look at it, and the scene holds by this disagreement. It is cold surrealism, without affect, set in an otherwise totally real Parisian brasserie backdrop. The comb’s red matches the booth red; the jacket’s checks echo the floor cubes.
Clean, luminous facture: window light cut into white and blue plan breaks, leathers rendered in glossy glazes, plumage worked strand by strand. The reflections of brass and glass are laid with a single gesture.
