"Pink Nudes". Cut-out on black paper, dated 1973 and signed with white chalk. Size of the support and subject : 65 x 50 cm (small wear of the paper on the left edge). Friend of Pignon, stimulated by Picasso, Philippe Artias (Feurs, France, 1912 - Numana, Italy 2002) works on the theme of the landscape and the nude which allows him to combine the constant mutation of nature and the mobility of the human body. At the end of the 60s, he favored the female nude which, little by little, will go as far as eroticism. His work is represented in various museums around the world: Paris, Geneva, Beijing, Sao Paolo in Brazil, Mexico City, Abidjan, Tehran and many others.
