This black-and-white artwork features a bold, graphic style with distinct shapes and lines. It depicts a stylized figure of a woman with an exaggerated hairstyle, as well as several other abstracted figures, including a donkey-like creature. The overall composition has a playful, surreal quality, with the contrasting shapes and minimal details creating a striking visual impact. The artist's use of a limited palette and simplified forms suggests a modern, expressive approach that may be influenced by pop art or other contemporary movements exploring the human form and its representation. ...
Jean-Michel Sanejouand (1934-2021) was born in Lyon and lived and worked in the Anjour region.

Trying to reflect the evolution of society, the gallery emphasises its proposals in a multi-faceted reflection on individuality and collectivity in a wide range of contexts. Like Janus, it looks both to the past and the future. Today's world is so in need of reference points that it's reassuring to invent a future, thanks to artists, as well as to compare it to the past. We invite you to ask for it, we will be at the gallery, very happy to explain it to you. ...
