AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Pigment ink print (digigraphs) on Canson Etching Rag 310g art paper.
100 copies numbered and signed by the artist.

Pigment impression taken from the original work.

Hervé Di Rosa breaks free from hierarchies, moving from children's drawing to primitive art, from comics to graffiti. The artist frees his art from his influences and references, without boundaries of cultural genre or geographical origin.
In 2005, he and 20 other artists took on the reinterpretation of a classic subject with passion, hope, and anger, and painted Don Quixote against everyone. And he said, "Don Quixote is me, surrounded by wickedness and stupidity, incomprehension and jealousy, and yet still believing in the goodness of men and their creative genius."
Appealing to the collective imagination, this work is resolutely timeless and forever contemporary, modern. In 2023, ultimately nothing has changed: we continue to fight against ordinary humanoid monsters, the mills of our time, with energy and above all hope, before the haughty and weary gaze of a sweetheart, whether it be personal or romantic convictions.
This collection was shown on numerous occasions in several museums
in France (Lyon, Nice, Perpignan) and in Spain for the 400th anniversary of Don Quixote, in
Madrid and Granada for a year.
