A philosopher by background, Christophe de Callataÿ is a leading association executive and a self-taught artist. His highly colourful, story-driven oil paintings reflect on the evolution of humankind—from the creation of the world to the unbearable lightness of its self-destruction. Drawing on global cultural influences, his allegorical works open a vibrant visual universe inhabited by imaginary animals, mythological creatures, and deities.
Through his colorful palette, Christophe de Callataÿ invites viewers to question the human condition, the fragility of civilization, and the enduring search for meaning and joy in the face of mortality.
Blending vibrant geometry, mythic figures, and allegorical symbols, his personal style is both contemporary and timeless—a search for meaning rendered in paint, light, and colours.
