Artwork location: France

This artwork showcases a dynamic and vivid portrait that captures attention with its bold use of color and expressive brushwork. The subject's face is rendered with a kaleidoscope of hues—vivid reds, blues, yellows, and oranges—that blend seamlessly, creating a vibrant, almost ethereal presence. The play of light and shadow across the features is expertly manipulated, highlighting the depth and emotion in the gaze. Expressionist in style, the painting emphasizes emotion over realism, with exaggerated features that convey a narrative of introspection and allure. The energetic strokes contribute to a sense of movement, as if the portrait might transcend its two-dimensional form. This piece stands out for its emotive power, captivating the viewer with its combination of technique and emotional depth, providing a striking interpretation of the human spirit.

Tolooie Shahab, Annabella
Iran  • 1956

Presentation

Saw his first lights and first colours in 1956 in Teheran.
Iranian easels in 1974
First encounter with the French vibe in 1979.

With a fierce will to keep his freedom to think, Tolooie has used a 1001 chalks, brushes, paints and other tools necessary to the process of creation. His inspiration is drawn from the fire of ancient and modern painters that came from the four corners of the Earth.

Equally inspired by the ‘joie de vivre’ and spiritual qualities of Khayam and Epicurus, he uses exquisite colours that radiate energy, musical notes and freedom of movement. When Louis Toffoli, a famous French artist, bought Tolooie’s work, it signalled a turning point. From then on, Tolooie becomes well established in South East France and shows in Germany, Switzerland and California.
He currently teaches fine art near Lyon, France.

Tolooie believes that the Art of Painting holds no barrier and that his work reconnects somewhere with the whole world in its universality and in search for supreme pleasure.
