About the artist Nasty is a historic figure in French graffiti. He began painting in Paris in the late 1980s and quickly established himself in the metro, which became the central arena of his work. His oeuvre draws on a vocabulary directly drawn from this environment — signage plaques, maps, ceramics — which he reuses and reinterprets in the studio. The aerosol spray can, a graffiti tool, also holds a central place, sometimes transformed into an object. Active for almost forty years, Nasty has shown in galleries since the 1990s and has developed work recognized in France and internationally. Nasty is part of the street art movement, alongside artists like Vhils, Invader, Shepard Fairey, JonOne, Kaws, Futura. Texts and photos Copyright Galerie CHENUS LONGHI.
