Chromogenic print - Signed and dated label to verso Vik Muniz 2005 // Vik Muniz's Flowers in Blue and White Vase, after Chardin (2005) is a chromogenic print that reinterprets the classic still-life genre through Muniz’s unique approach to mixed media. Inspired by the works of Jean-Baptiste-Siméon Chardin, Muniz employs a mosaic of textures and colors to construct an image that appears traditional from afar but reveals a complex, layered technique upon closer inspection. The composition features a bouquet of flowers in a blue and white vase, meticulously recreated with layered, textured fragments that simulate brushstrokes. This intricate reinterpretation challenges viewers to consider the essence of visual representation, blending historical influence with contemporary technique. Limited to an edition of 6 with 4 artist proofs, this piece measures 50 x 40 cm, embodying Muniz’s playful yet profound exploration of classical art.

What is photorealism?
Photorealism is a genre of art or artistic movement that involves drawing, painting, and other graphic media in which the artist carefully studies a photograph and attempts to reproduce it as realistically as possible in another medium. While the term can broadly describe any artwork created in this manner, it specifically refers to a group of painters and paintings in the U.S. art movement that emerged in the late 1960s and early 1970s.
