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.

Pascal Russi (PRussi)

Switzerland

Pascal Russi is a contemporary Swiss painter whose work is defined by constant evolution and a resistance to creative monotony. Refusing to be confined to a single style, Russi embraces artistic diversity, often exploring opposite directions and integrating new techniques into his practice. This dynamic approach reflects his desire to avoid repetition, finding inspiration instead in change and spontaneity. For him, the joy of creating lies in freedom, variety, and the ability to remain in harmony with himself.

Initially, Russi's work was dominated by oil painting, but since 2010, he has shifted to acrylics. The quick-drying nature of acrylics aligns with his instinctive painting style, allowing him to incorporate unconventional materials like tar and sand. Despite the challenges posed by a disability that affects the use of one hand, Russi meticulously plans each project to ensure the cleanliness and precision of his final pieces.

With a career spanning over 30 years, Russi has exhibited his work extensively, particularly on the international stage. His dedication and innovation have earned him several awards, affirming his place in the contemporary art world.
