THEME:

This unique JABRO “Graphicpainting” combines two oppositional elements like Graphic and Painting as a visually vivid complimenting "Contrast-Pair" in one painting.

In addition, another kind of the perception “Contrast-Pair”, like human and animal are symbolised into its extreme. That means, the topic of spiritual and physical contradictions of Greece’s ancient mythology are pictorially representing the interrelationship between the human (LEDA)-and the god (ZEUS) hidden in the body of a swan, by JABRO freely articulated after a masterwork from the Middle Ages.

Taking on this controversial ancient Greece theme spontaneously the contrary and multilayered topic is coming up in form of Christianity’s spiritual and real, but "Unsullied Conception of the Mother of God" 1975, JABRO ©.
