Description: "La Place des Arenes" is a striking print by the French Expressionist painter Bernard Buffet. Known for his representational style, Buffet's works often feature bold and central compositions. He was a prominent advocate for representational art during a time when abstraction was gaining popularity. Buffet's extensive oeuvre delves into various themes, including art history, death, sexuality, popular culture, and politics, often referencing contemporary events and artists. With over 8,000 paintings to his name, Buffet gained widespread acclaim and recognition through numerous international exhibitions. He was honored by induction into the Academie des Beaux-Arts in 1974. Born in Paris on July 10, 1928, Buffet tragically ended his own life in Tourtour, France, on October 4, 1999, after a prolonged battle with Parkinson's disease. His legacy continues to leave a significant impact on the art world.
