Artworks classification

Original Artwork

Original Artwork refers to any work that is considered authentic and not a copy or imitation of the original works of an artist. Original artwork can be any type of painting, sculpture, performance, or other media. There are many types of original media. Mixed media includes oil, acrylic, and watercolor paintings. For workshop paintings that bear evidence of master craftsmanship, this attribution must be further qualified. While they may be less valuable for different reasons, reproductions and copies have had a tremendous impact on our experience. They reach a greater audience than originals and act as a tonic against commodification. Original Artwork could also refer to the first work, which is always preceding all others. It could also refer to a prototype or a model from which other works can be made. Each work bears great similarities to the original.

Evocation de l’Alhambra de Grenade. Couleurs rompues : terres, ocres, gris rehaussés de carmins, jaunes, bleus et blancs. Un monument majeur de l'architecture islamique.
Un Éden tout en délicatesse et harmonie.
« L'Alhambra ! l'Alhambra ! Palais que les génies
Ont doré comme un rêve et rempli d'harmonies.
Forteresse aux créneaux festonnés et croulants
Où l'on entend la nuit de magiques syllabes,
Quand la lune, à travers les mille arceaux arabes,
Sème les murs de trèfles blancs. »
Victor Hugo

Evocatoria de la Alhambra de Granada. Colores rotos: tierras, ocres, grises realzados con carmen, amarillos, azules y blancos. Un importante monumento de la arquitectura islámica.
Un Edén con delicadeza y armonía.
¡La Alhambra! ¡la Alhambra! Palais que los genios
Dorado como un sueño y lleno de armonías.
Fortaleza con almacenes festivos y crujientes
Donde se oye la noche de sílabas mágicas,
Cuando la luna, a través de los mil arcos árabes,
Siembra las paredes de tréboles blancos. »
Victor Hugo

Guy Rieutort

France

Guy Rieutort, artist living and working in Montpellier, is a photographer and author who has an overflowing passion for painting. For him, these two artistic disciplines intertwine harmoniously, merging colors, compositions, lights and energies, each treated with a unique sensitivity and influenced by his experience of the world around him.

Guy Rieutort's photographs and paintings intertwine, sometimes confront each other, but always complement each other to create a captivating artistic dialogue. As Catherine Vautrin pointed out, they form a coherent whole where creativity flourishes through different forms of visual expression.

In his series entitled "Arte digital", Guy Rieutort offers an artistic journey oscillating between photographic realism and the alternative expression of intuitive drawing. His prints, in 20 x 30 cm format, come to life on Hahnemühle William Turner 310 g/m² paper, carefully framed under a mat.

The artist also explores a lighter series, featuring caricatures which maliciously shake up our contemporaries in French entertainment society. These creations reflect his satirical vision and sharp sense of humor, offering a playful look at our times.

Constantly seeking inspiration and artistic innovation, Guy Rieutort continues to push the boundaries of photography and painting, creating a unique and constantly evolving artistic legacy.
