About the artwork

Patrick Rubinstein's "lamour ultime" presents the word "LOVE" as a vibrant, fragmented message across three panels. The central panel features the letters against a gold background, filled with a chaotic collage of comic book graphics, speech bubbles, and even a "Chupa Chups" reference, suggesting a playful, consumerist take on the concept. The side panels offer contrasting treatments, one with blue letters against a yellow background, and the other with a more densely packed collage. The lenticular effect, implied by Rubinstein's style, likely adds a shifting, dynamic quality to the imagery. The work captures the essence of love as a multifaceted concept, filtered through the lens of pop culture and presented with a sense of playful energy.

About the artist

French contemporary artist Patrick Rubinstein invites viewers into a world where nostalgia, motion, and modernity collide. Drawing inspiration from icons of pop culture and the legacies of Optical and Kinetic Art, Rubinstein creates mesmerizing, multi-dimensional works that transform with every shift in perspective. His pieces are more than visual—they are experiences, alive with movement and surprise. At the heart of Rubinstein’s art is a dynamic interplay between image and viewer. With a signature lenticular technique, he overlays multiple visuals into a single composition, allowing the work to shift and animate as one moves past it. Marilyn Monroe, Elvis Presley, and modern-day symbols take on renewed vitality, not as static portraits but as pulsing, kinetic echoes of cultural memory. Through this ever-changing lens, Rubinstein challenges us to see beyond the surface—into layers of time, perspective, and perception.
