French artist Bernard Dufour's paintings often centered on a theme of female homoeroticism. His oil painting technique used fleshy, light-toned colors to accentuate the realism of his female subjects. As a visual artist, he paid attention to detail and movement, adding a realistic softness to his female forms. This Bernard Dufour artwork for sale is very different to his earlier pieces, which used abstract art techniques.
His depiction of the delicate features of women in his paintings and their underlying tone of sexuality make his pieces prized among art collectors and enthusiasts of this style. Artist Bernard Dufour has had multiple successful art exhibitions throughout the world, and in 2017, his contribution to art was celebrated in a posthumous exhibition at the Galerie Zurcher.
