This work of Jean-Philippe Ghiglione 's dynamic and expressive painting depicts a cavalcade of horses in motion. Painted in oil with a palette knife, it is distinguished by its gestural, semi-abstract style. The horses, rendered in energetic strokes of brown, black, white, and yellow, appear to leap from the canvas, carried along by a powerful and spontaneous momentum. The white background accentuates the effect of speed and freedom, giving the impression that the animals are galloping in a bright, almost unreal light. The material is worked with vigor, evoking both the muscular strength of the horses and the wind surrounding them. The contours are deliberately blurred, reflecting the intensity of the movement rather than the precision of the shapes. The signature at the bottom left - recognizable among other things by its free line - confirms the authenticity of the Ghiglione style, which explores here, as often, the themes of wild nature and animal vitality.

This work of Jean-Philippe Ghiglione depicts a cockfight in the artist's characteristic Abstract Expressionist style. Painted with a palette knife and great energy, the composition captures the intense movement and dramatic tension of the confrontation. The subject depicts two roosters facing off, frozen in a fighting posture, almost symmetrical, but each retaining its own dynamic. The color palette is vivid and contrasting, dominated by warm tones—red, orange, yellow—that evoke combativeness and vitality, and dark tones—black, gray, touches of white—that accentuate confrontation and strength. The knife strokes are powerful and edgy. The impasto adds substance to the feathers and conveys the violence and brilliance of the duel. The almost blank white background highlights the roosters' movement and focuses the eye on the central scene, without distraction. This cockfight goes beyond the animal anecdote to become a metaphor for duality, rivalry, and even controlled chaos. The pictorial gesture evokes struggle, instinct, and the immediacy of the clash. Jean-Philippe Ghiglione's signature, visible at the bottom right, anchors the work in its artistic identity, mixing abstraction, gestural energy and strong symbolism.

The table of Jean-Philippe Ghiglione depicts a majestic lion at the center of the composition, captured in all its splendor and power. The white background highlights the main subject, creating a striking contrast that immediately draws the eye. The lion, painted in oil on canvas, is rendered in tawny hues, evoking the warmth and wildness of the savannah. The colors, vibrant and intense, range from golden yellow to earthy brown. The knife application adds a rich texture and an almost sculptural dimension to the painting. The knife strokes are visible, creating ridges and valleys in the material, giving the lion's coat a tactile and lively quality. The lines are both sharp and dynamic, capturing the animal's contained energy. The lion's gaze, piercing and charged with a regal gravity, seems to pierce the viewer, adding emotional depth to the work.
