Represented by Larry Gagosian, and working with brands like Jimmy Choo, Montblanc and MAC Cosmetics, it’s time to look into Richard Phillips’ work.
This painting is called Scout. A huge pair of red glasses exacerbates more than it conceals the features of this teenager’s face. As for her breasts, they emphasize a perfect tan. Innocence cradled a bottle of eroticism, purity deflowered by artistic insolence: Richard Phillips is a master in his field.

MIRROR PHILLIPS
The hyperrealism of the work of Richard Phillips tackles a smile due to its photographic perfection when it does not exceed it. While Photoshop is for making the beautiful more beautiful and the real more real, Richard Phillips questions the perfection by pushing to the maximum.
Moreover, he says:
“My paintings involve some sort of lost beauty – it has always been the center of my work.”

It is a thin line between the pleasure and the discomfort of the viewer. But the basis of the work of Richard Phillips, one knows it all, is that which follows us in magazines, the web and into the soft porn distilled in advertising.

Phillips returns the collective imagery by taking the word: a plumping gloss on the features of our aesthetic canons. The result? We take the result like a punch in the face, just like we do with the nipples of the girl from the Scout painting.
