What/who inspired the work? Formally, I was inspired by the Gerhard Richter's paintings and conceptually, by the Robert Filliou's assemblage titled "Autoportrait bien fait, mal fait, pas fait" (Self-Portrait Well Made, Badly Made, Not Made). What do you hope its viewers will feel/think? Since 2011, I am creating a collection of oil paintings for my museum, The Davis Museum in Barcelona (). This group of artworks are divided in three genres: portraits, still lifes and historical paintings. I started to paint Filliou in 2011 and this artwork is his nineth portrait. Why did you choose the medium, subject matter? Oil painting is glossy, flexible and durable. I use the best material for my paintings: linen fabrics, Blockx and Old Holland oil paintings. The main subject matter of all paintings is the "artists who created their own museums". For this reason, I usually make portraits of the artists (Duchamp, Filliou and Broodathers), also make still lifes of their "museums": "Boîte-en-valise", "La galerie légitime" and "Musée d'Art Moderne, Département des Aigles". This is the only section of the museums in which the works are for sale. Support The Davis Museum art project by buying now this painting on Saatchi Art.

Davis Lisboa (São Paulo, Brazil, 1965) is a visual artist based in Barcelona since 1986. Throughout his career, he has worked across diverse media, including drawing, painting, digital art, and video, exploring the boundaries between applied and fine arts, high and low culture, art and the marketplace, as well as craftsmanship and technology. In addition to his work as an illustrator and painter, Lisboa is the creator of the Davis Museum | The Davis Lisboa Mini-Museum of Contemporary Art in Barcelona, an innovative online project that functions both as a work of art in its own right and as a platform for the promotion of international contemporary artists. This mini-museum, conceived as a conceptual artwork, challenges traditional exhibition conventions by presenting pieces that blur the lines between viewer and artwork, encouraging critical reflection on art accessibility and the democratization of culture. Lisboa has participated in numerous exhibitions and art events of international significance, establishing himself as a prominent figure in the global contemporary art scene.
