Canvas on wooden frame, torn posters, spray, 61x50 cm. Original and unique artwork on canvas handmade, straight from the studio. Ready to hang on the wall. Protected and fast shipping. Sold without a frame. LASVEGUIX French contemporary artist, Lasveguix develops a singular universe at the crossroads of street art, collage and contemporary painting. His work questions the memory of walls, the passage of time and the poetry of the ephemeral, transforming urban scars into emotionally charged works. Initiated into graffiti by his cousin SUOZ, he forges his visual language through contact with the walls of Paris and London. His work is part of an artistic lineage where the great names of urban and contemporary art dialogue. One finds the heritage of Jacques Villeglé and Raymond Hains in the art of torn posters, the sculptural power of Vhils, the raw energy of Jean-Michel Basquiat, the silhouettes of Jérôme Mesnager, the poetry of Miss Tic, the urban memory of Ernest Pignon-Ernest, Jef Aérosol’s stencil, Invader’s pixelated universe and the iconic force of Shepard Fairey. Without ever imitating them, Lasveguix asserts a personal handwriting, immediately recognizable. Torn posters, spray, acrylic, Posca and reliefs compose real « wall skins », where the tears, the superimpositions and the traces of time become witnesses to a collective memory. Each work reveals a dialogue between matter, history and emotion, inviting the viewer to rediscover the beauty of what the city seemed to have forgotten. Lasveguix regularly exhibits in France and internationally. His works join private collections in many countries and testify to a growing interest from collectors. His career leads him to participate in art fairs, prestigious exhibitions as well as charity galas bringing together collectors, patrons and institutions. His work has notably been presented at events organized at Roland-Garros, at the District 13 Art Fair at Hôtel Drouot, in Monaco and in several emblematic venues of the contemporary art scene. Through each of his creations, Lasveguix gives a second life to the remnants of the city. He does not represent the walls: he reveals their soul, making urban heritage, memory and creation dialogue in a work that is deeply contemporary and timeless.
