About this artwork
Portrait of Bernard Madoff, whose affair made a lot of noise, quite hypocritical to me. This painting is full of details and symbols, it contains the convict's registration number, his sentence and the eye of the dollar of course, reproduced everywhere at the end of arrows representing the general opprobe. The white M, as marked with chalk, is, besides Madoff's initial, a nod to Fritz Lang's film M le maudit.

« A truly successful painting should, in my opinion, resemble the perfectly limpid transcription of a very animated, even violent discussion, perhaps even a brawl, between the conscious and the unconscious. »
Philippe Caspar is a painter, draftsman, and sculptor based in France whose works have been exhibited nationally and in England. Continuously searching for a balance between the figurative and the abstract, he describes his art as conveying his interiority, the struggles of the soul, and paradoxes. In his artistic practice, Caspar favors acrylics on canvas.
