Christian Assel, a contemporary French painter, embarked on his artistic journey after dedicating 35 years to the realms of graphic design and ceramics. Born in 1955 in France, Assel's transition to painting was marked by an enthusiastic embrace of the medium. His artistic oeuvre is a testament to his deep-rooted passion for painting itself, finding joy in the transformative process of giving life to a blank canvas.
Drawing inspiration from the act of painting, Assel's works are characterized by their incredible realism, immediately capturing the viewer's attention with their meticulous attention to detail. Each brushstroke, each shade of color, faithfully replicates the reality it seeks to portray, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in the tangible world depicted on canvas.
Assel's artistic influences, including surrealist masters such as Dali and Magritte, as well as contemporary artists like Gerard Schlosser, shape his unique style and approach to painting. Utilizing modern tools like computers for composition and acrylic paint for its practicality, Assel's process remains rooted in traditional techniques, eschewing gimmicks in favor of pure artistic expression.
Thematically, Assel's paintings traverse a diverse landscape, from allegorical reflections on ecology to poetic metaphors exploring the depths of human emotion and societal dynamics. Characters depicted in his works are distinctly contemporary, often adorned in denim attire, a nod to the realities of the 21st century.
Upon retiring in 2022, Assel redirected his focus towards exhibiting his paintings permanently in his own dedicated exhibition space. Despite initial doubts about the modernity of his figurative style, Assel's belief in the enduring relevance of realism has only been reaffirmed over time, as the art world welcomes a resurgence of appreciation for the tangible and the real. Today, his works continue to captivate audiences, offering glimpses into worlds both familiar and fantastical, where the joy of painting transcends the boundaries of time and space.
