Notable original contemporary Figurative artworks
"The Persistence of Memory" by Salvador Dali, created in 1931, is a surrealist masterpiece that depicts melting pocket watches in a barren landscape. The distorted timepieces symbolize the fleeting nature of time, while the desolate setting represents the emptiness of existence.
"Frida and Diego Rivera" by Frida Kahlo, painted in 1931, is a self-portrait that showcases the Mexican artist and her husband, Diego Rivera. The painting is a testament to the couple’s tumultuous relationship, with Kahlo’s face half-hidden behind a bouquet of flowers, while Rivera is depicted as a towering figure.
"Untitled #96" by Cindy Sherman, created in 1981, is a photograph that features the artist disguised as a glamorous Hollywood starlet. The image is a commentary on the way women are often portrayed in the media, with Sherman subverting the traditional male gaze by donning a fake wig and heavy makeup.
"The Physical Impossibility of Death in the Mind of Someone Living" by Damien Hirst, created in 1991, is a sculpture that features a preserved tiger shark suspended in a tank of formaldehyde. The piece is a commentary on mortality and the fear of death, with the shark representing the inevitability of our own demise.
"The Kiss" by Gustav Klimt, painted in 1907-1908, is a shimmering masterpiece of the Art Nouveau movement. The painting depicts a couple locked in a passionate embrace, surrounded by swirling patterns and golden tones. The image is a celebration of sensuality and the beauty of human connection.
"Les Demoiselles d’Avignon" by Pablo Picasso, painted in 1907, is a groundbreaking work of Cubism. The painting features five nude women, each with a disconcerting mask-like face and angular, fragmented bodies. The piece is a rejection of traditional notions of beauty and form, and a bold statement about the power of artistic experimentation.
"Whaam!" by Roy Lichtenstein, created in 1963, is a vibrant pop art painting that depicts an explosion in mid-air. The image is taken from a comic book and is rendered in Lichtenstein’s characteristic style, with bold lines and bright primary colors. The painting is a commentary on the glorification of violence in popular culture.
"Self-Portrait with Thorn Necklace and Hummingbird" by Frida Kahlo, painted in 1940, is a haunting self-portrait that features the artist wearing a necklace made of thorns and a dead hummingbird. The image is a reflection of Kahlo’s physical and emotional pain, with the thorns representing the wounds she suffered throughout her life, and the hummingbird symbolizing the fleeting nature of beauty.
