The artwork titled “La Grande Ferne – Hommage à Bernard Réquichot” was created by the artist Dado between the years 1962 and 1963. It is currently housed in the Georges Pompidou Center in Paris, France.
The artwork presents a tumultuous and intricate landscape filled with fantastical and distorted figures. The scene is densely populated with a myriad of bizarre, hybrid creatures and anthropomorphic forms, set against a backdrop of fragmented architecture and landscapes. The use of vibrant and often contrasting colors emphasizes the chaotic and surreal nature of the composition. The overall atmosphere of the artwork is one of surreal instability and imaginative exuberance, capturing the viewer’s attention through its complexity and the multitude of enigmatic details.
