Artwork consiting of 15 Stilettos and 15 Iron Nails on a wooden structure covered with Gold Leaf, created in 2017 at the workshop of Budapest. Artist's Gold Seal 18K. Edition 1/1. What of God in All of This? Our Father... I used to know you by heart when I was a boy... Since then … well, I can’t really tell anymore... Too many things that cannot be understood, too many unanswered questions. I remember Jesus on the Cross... His Sacrifice for All of us... His indiscriminate Love... Irrespective of sex, race, religion, or condition... He wanted to save everyone... Jesus, no more particular about Mary Magdalene’s way of life than about the morals of his fellow martyrs on Golgotha... Sinful woman or scoundrels, he couldn’t care less... His Apostles were all married men... Hosea had married a prostitute... Ismael had been born to a surrogate mother... What can be said, several centuries later, of Sergius and Bacchus, the two Roman soldiers, fond of gladiator combat, these two sweet and loving companions, blessed by the Church and become two of its Saints? Nobody then saw anything to blame about this... ... What has happened since? Are the lost lambs turning into black sheep more they did in those times ? Are pariahs less easy to live along with? Are the heels of whores too high? The make-up of transvestites too flashy? ... The deafening silence of the Church... The ferocious laughter of the devout... The Cross of Difference increasingly heavy to bear... Otherness crucified... A nail stuck in a stiletto, like a pebble in the Heart of Christ... See the red of Love, not that of sin... Not a hint of sacrilege on the Cross... An artwork like a prayer, for all the outcasts of the Earth.

French artist born in 1954, He lives and works between Prague (Czech Republic), Budapest (Hungary) and Aix-en-Provence (France).▪️A Multifaceted Artist Self-taught, atypical, and iconoclastic, Denis Defrancesco uses a whole range of techniques and materials to give form to his ideas, fantasies, and anxieties. A great ape in bronze, a giant plexiglass rabbit, a blow-up doll made of marble, a plastic Obama, a steel machine for slicing memories, a urinal in oil paint... He keeps giving the world his own twist, transfiguring reality to tell us stories: a childhood fear, a teenage memory, a passionate love affair, time fleeting, the body declining, death lurking. It is pop, electric, often bold, and always free. His work, both carnal and scientific, blends bronze with marble, paint with plexiglass, steel with plastic. He likes nothing more than mixing genres and spurning styles. Denis Defrancesco is an exalted introvert, an exhibitionist full of modesty, who creates an eclectic, surprising, insolent, and personal body of work with his monumental sculptures, 3-D paintings, and metamorphosized idols. A text accompanies each of his sculptures and paintings, like the key to a specific story. ▪️Private gallery in Aix en Provence (France)
