About the artwork

Patrick Rubinstein’s works often feature the major icons and celebrities of the second half of the twentieth century, creating a colourful Pop universe that is infused with the anarchic madness of 80’s street art. Rubinstein invites us to immerse ourselves in these memories through his avant-garde works that are situated at the crossroads of Optical, Pop and Street Art. This work features Robert Indiana’s iconic “LOVE” print, with a myriad of luxury brand logos such as Louis Vuitton and Chanel forming the background, which are interspersed with images of the Mona Lisa. Rubinstein makes a nuanced yet striking statement about the coalescence of luxury goods, consumerism and fine art, that simultaneously offers viewers a unique visual experience.

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.
