A digital version of Jean Paul Riopelle’s immense fresco, exhibited at the Musée national des beaux-arts du Québec, will represent Canada in an exhibition presented on the sidelines of the G20, which opens this Friday in India.
The exhibition, which runs until November 9 in New Delhi, will allow visitors to appreciate Riopelle’s masterpiece, a sequence of 30 paintings integrated into a triptych measuring more than 40 meters long where we found many dead geese.
The Homage to Rosa Luxemburg, which Riopelle began painting in 1992 following the death of her ex-partner and muse, the American painter Joan Mitchell – while bearing the name of a German communist activist – will be screened at the same time time that a musical extract from Riopelle symphonique, a creation by Serge Fiori and Blair Thomson, will be broadcast.
Other works on display in New Delhi include a digital version of The Mona Lisa, housed at the Louvre in Paris.
