This painting on corrugated cardboard represents Catherine MILLET, an emblematic figure of French culture, in a suggestive pose, based on a photo taken from her controversial book "The Sexual Life of Catherine M". This book, published in 2001, sparked an important debate on sexuality and freedom of expression in France. In this book, Catherine MILLET describes without detour or taboo her sexual life and her erotic journey.

By creating this painting, I wanted to pay tribute to Catherine MILLET, a talented and courageous woman. She is known for her work as an art critic, for her magazine ART PRESS, which has become one of the most important French magazines devoted to contemporary art, and for her audacious book. By exposing her personal life with frankness and without compromise, Catherine MILLET paved the way for a new form of freedom of expression in France.

As an artist, I am aware of the importance of freedom of expression and the need to advance ideas and social debates through art. This painting is therefore a testimony of my commitment to freedom of expression and recognition of the importance of Catherine MILLET in this area. The suggestive pose chosen for this painting reflects the strength and self-confidence of Catherine MILLET, who knew how to expose her personal life and her intimacy with courage and determination.

This painting is also a tribute to art in general. It demonstrates how art can be used to explore and expose controversial themes, such as sexuality, in bold and original ways. The choice of material, corrugated cardboard, also reinforces the importance of freedom of expression and creativity in art, as it allows working with an inexpensive and easily accessible material, while creating a powerful work. and expressive.

In conclusion, this painting on Catherine MILLET is a tribute to a talented and courageous woman, to freedom of expression, to art in general and to the recognition of the importance of authentic expression in our personal choices and our life. It invites reflection on freedom of expression and the importance of recognizing authenticity in our society, and celebrates art as a means of advancing social debates and important ideas.
