About Krefeld Project Bathroom Scene 2

The artwork titled “Krefeld Project Bathroom Scene 2” is a nude painting (nu) created by Eric Fischl in 2003 as part of the “Krefeld Project” series. It belongs to the art movement known as Contemporary Realism.

The painting depicts a domestic scene set in a bathroom, split into two distinct sections. On the left, a bearded man stands naked, preparing for a shave, with visible shaving cream on his face. A mirror appears to be part of this setup, providing additional depth to the space. To the right, a woman is seated in a partially filled bathtub, her naked body partially covered by her hands and a bath brush, she appears introspective or focused in her bathing ritual. The bathroom setting is detailed with typical elements such as tiled walls and a toilet, providing a realistic backdrop to the intimate and vulnerable acts captured by the artist. The reflective surfaces and the naturalistic use of light and shadow enhance the realism of the scene, characteristic of Eric Fischl’s work within the Contemporary Realism movement.
