Description of the Artwork “Magic City”
In 'Magic City', Constantin Roucault masterfully captures the vibrant, pulsating heart of Las Vegas. Through a kaleidoscope of colors, this piece takes the viewer on a journey through the city's dazzling highs and haunting lows. The painting predates 'Urban Colors' and continues the narrative of human and urban intertwine. Here, Las Vegas is not just a backdrop but a living, breathing entity. Dots and bubbles traverse the canvas, symbolizing the dualities of luck and loss, richness and poverty, glamour and grotesqueness. This dynamic interplay invites contemplation on the nature of achievement and failure, and the complex relationships between the city's visitors and inhabitants. Roucault's work is a profound reflection on the beauty and chaos of urban life, capturing the magic and the madness of a city that never sleeps.
Artwork in the interior
Constantin Roucault, Switzerland
Constantin is a contemporary artist from Fribourg. His main medium is oil paint, which he greatly values for its versatility and depth. Additionally, he uses other techniques like acrylic, ink, charcoal, collage, and screen printing to add more depth and expression to his works. In his art, Constantin shows the contrast and harmony between the man-made world and nature. Some of his urban motifs with graphic lines and imaginative elements give the city environment a playful touch. In his abstract works, he explores the energy and movement of waves, inspired by the power of nature. Other works resemble a narrative journey full of hidden truths – like a labyrinth of mirrors where everyone faces their own desires, fears, and emotions.
