With MARILYN, Eric Lapierre offers an intensely contemporary interpretation of a universal icon. More than a portrait, the work is a vibrant apparition, where the face emerges from the material in a movement of light, color, and energy. Against a deep black background, the figure stands out brilliantly, carried by a luminous palette blending golds, pinks, whites, reds, and electric accents.
The painting immediately strikes the viewer with its expressive power. The composition combines glamorous presence with pictorial tension, creating a dialogue between the immediate recognizability of the subject and an almost abstract style. Contours dissolve, the material seems in perpetual transformation, and the portrait thus acquires a living, sensitive, almost incandescent dimension.
Eric Lapierre is not simply seeking representation here: he reinvents a mythical image through a personal visual language, based on gesture, vibration, and chromatic density. MARILYN then becomes the site of an encounter between collective memory, visual emotion, and contemporary energy.
With its vertical format of 75 x 100 cm, this work possesses a strong and elegant presence, ideal for inclusion in a contemporary art collection centered around powerful and unique figurative pieces. It will appeal to collectors who appreciate works that boldly, intensely, and sophisticatedly reinterpret iconic figures.

Eric Lapierre, Marilyn (1/8)
France  • 1972

Presentation

Born in 1972 near Lyon, Eric Lapierre is one of the emerging stars of contemporary art.

He didn't do any artistic studies and left school when he was in ninth grade to do a training at a printing house. He then began a career in a photography laboratory.

He is very familiar with new medias and technologies. He masters photo editing, digital painting and graphic design. This is how he was able to feel fulfilled and began to create. He prints his photos on metallic paper and poses them on aluminum structures.

Famous personages emerged on these structures, rock stars like Bowie, Jimi Hendrix or the Beatles. Portraits on black backgrounds which come to life through color shades and a game of shapes. Eric Lapierre uses as well icons from the popular culture, we can see Chanel n°5 or Audrey Hepburn's face emerge in his pieces.

The characters who appear in his works are updated through colors that run under their digital skin. Gentle colorful explosions, which are fluid and let movement be seen.

Philipe Lapierre has participated in several exhibitions, most of them important ones. In 2013 in particular, he stood out in the exhibition "The Story of the Creative" in New York and the following year in Times Square. He was on the cover of GQ in 2015 with his work "Keith Live" which increased his fame.
