"Dulcinea" is an abstract work dominated by rich red tones, complemented by subtle hues of blue, purple, and yellow. The composition consists of blurred, blended colors, creating a sense of depth and movement. The overall effect is atmospheric and emotionally charged, evoking warmth, passion, and mystery. The upper section of the work features a lighter red-orange area, while the lower portion is a deeper red, creating a horizon-like division. Hints of blue and purple in the upper corners add contrast, giving the piece a dynamic yet harmonious balance.
Michel Tabori's abstract work relies on color fields and transitions rather than defined forms or sharp edges. The soft gradients and layering of pigments suggest a meditative quality, reminiscent of color-field painters like Mark Rothko. The dominance of red conveys strong emotions—passion, love, or even longing—while the subtle cooler tones introduce complexity and depth. The blurred boundaries between colors create a dreamlike atmosphere, inviting subjective interpretation.
The title refers to Dulcinea del Toboso, a fictional character from Miguel de Cervantes' . Dulcinea represents an idealized, unattainable love, a romantic vision that exists more in the imagination than reality. This connection could suggest that the work embodies themes of desire, illusion, or the beauty of unattainable aspirations.
Michel Tabori is known for abstract expressionism and color-focused compositions. His work often explores the emotional and psychological effects of color. "Dulcinea" aligns with modernist traditions where color and form take precedence over representational detail, aiming to evoke mood rather than depict a specific scene.

Presentation
Michel Tabori, born in Paris in 1956 and raised in New York, is a French-American artist renowned for his innovative visual artistry. He is based in Paris, Marbella and Venice Beach. Before transitioning to the art world, Tabori spent over three decades working globally as a director, producer, writer, and cinematographer. This extensive experience in film and television profoundly influences his current artistic endeavors.
Tabori's work often begins as studies of nature, experienced directly or through reflections of the subject's surroundings. He seeks to create a feeling of motion through nature, in a way precluded by casual, stationary observation.
Tabori's artistic journey reflects a seamless integration of his cinematic background with his passion for visual art, resulting in works that invite viewers to experience nature and motion from a unique perspective. His early work came about while driving through densely wooded, western forests at high speed on a Harley Davidson. Endless configurations of passing multi-shaped greens, reds, oranges, yellows and blues of varying shades and tones, along with constantly changing, misty shadows and rainy reflections merged with intense rays of California sunlight or bright beams of penetrating moonlight. The higher the speed, the more motion there is to see and feel, the more powerful the experience becomes. More recently, he incorporated these same techniques while travelling through the south of France, particularly in Provence. Conveying this in his paintings, they become a representation of the interplay of all these components.
Tabori's artistic journey led him back to Europe five years ago, where he immersed himself in the atmospheric light that inspired the Impressionists. This shift influenced his exploration of erotic themes, drawing inspiration from ancient Greek mythology, Spanish Flamenco, and the French concept of "rêve d'amour". His works are abstract, poetic reactions to personal experiences, delving into notions of love, eroticism, identity, and gender fluidity.
