Fetishes; Les Fetiches, 1928
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by Frits van den Berghe that exudes an eerie and dreamlike quality. The artwork, measuring 49.5x38 cm, showcases the artist's mastery in depicting the human form and exploring themes of sexuality and the subconscious. In this intriguing composition, Van den Berghe presents a scene that blurs the boundaries between reality and fantasy. The figures depicted are semi-nude or completely naked, their bodies rendered with meticulous attention to detail. Their poses evoke a sense of mystery and allure while hinting at hidden desires. The use of oil on paper laid down on panel adds texture to the painting, enhancing its visual impact. Van den Berghe's skillful brushwork brings out both light and shadow, creating a haunting atmosphere that lingers in the viewer's mind. The juxtaposition of black and white colors further intensifies the surreal ambiance of "Fetishes; Les Fetiches". It heightens our perception of contrasts - between lightness and darkness, innocence and sensuality - inviting us to contemplate deeper meanings behind these enigmatic figures. This early twentieth-century masterpiece challenges conventional notions of beauty while delving into realms beyond conscious understanding. Its exploration of dreamscape elements invites viewers into a realm where fantasies come alive. "Fetishes; Les Fetiches" stands as a testament to Van den Berghe's innovative approach to art-making during his time. This thought-provoking piece continues to captivate audiences today with its timeless appeal and evocative imagery.
