Fashion is only the attempt to realize art in living forms and social intercourse.
- Francis Bacon

Francis Bacon was an Irish painter known for his abstract imagery. His paintings were typically figurative images painted in the environment of empty backgrounds or within geometric cages of steel or glass, all painted with flat, monochromatic color palettes. Francis Bacon frequently created series of paintings that depicted the same subject matter over a period of time. This was due to his tendency to focus on the same themes and variations of introspective, somber and existential subjects as his artistic motifs. Perhaps the most famous work of Francis Bacon is the one which brought him his first success as an artist. His Three Studies for Figures at the Base of a Crucifixion was exhibited for the first time in 1945, and many felt that this work placed him securely as a well-regarded artist. Though the figures in this triptych are barely recognizable as human, they nevertheless express a stark and raw expression of negative bodily energy. Another notable painting is Study after Velazquez’s Portrait of Pope Innocent X from 1953. Journalist Wyndham Lewis wrote that Francis Bacon as an artist was “astonishingly sinister”. Because Bacon’s fame as an artist occurred during the post-World War II era, many critics felt that his art was a reflection and representation of the brutality experienced during those years and the deprivation of the years after. To avoid confusion, it is important to note that Francis Bacon’s father is thought to be the direct descendant of the elder brother of Sir Francis Bacon, which may explain the shared name. In his later decades, Francis Bacon painted many portraits of his companion George Dyer. Bacon’s Black Triptych includes scenes of the moments just before and after Dyer’s suicide. The paintings have been described as “brutal depictions” of this tragic event in Bacon’s life, but the work is also considered to be one of Bacon’s greatest masterpieces. (Artist website)

What is figurative art?

Sometimes known as Figurativism, figurative art refers to sculptures and paintings that are clearly or specifically derived from real objects, making them representational. The term figurative art is often used in contrast to abstract art. However, since the emergence of abstract art, figurative art has come to describe any form of modern art that has strong references to the real world or actual situations.
