Jeu de Chat-American Gothic is an oil painting by Corine Perier that revisits American Gothic in a surreal animal parody.
Corine reinvents the masterpiece of Grant Wood by replacing the austere couple with a mischievous cat and a graceful doe. This nod to the iconic painting at the Chicago Art Institute creates a dialogue between American tradition and animal fantasy.
This work is part of the series Masquerades and Portraits populated with fantastic animals from folklore and legends, while also paying homage to the great classics of painting.
