The scene shows a crowd dancing around a golden calf and evokes idol worship and fascination with wealth.

Skepa is a French artist born in 1978, painter and sculptor, co-founder of the BAFO movement.
He graduated from the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts de Lyon, and began his artistic practice with graffiti alongside Jone Hopper in the early 1990s.
His work sits within a free and instinctive approach, nourished by urban culture and contemporary visual exploration.
Over the years, his painting evolves toward a rougher, more expressive handwriting, blending abstraction, free figuration and the energy of gestural mark-making.
Recognized for a singular and immediately identifiable universe, Skepa develops a powerful and vibrant body of work, regularly presented on the international art market.
