GRAPHITO-POLARIS
In this project especially designed for the galerie Polaris, Speedy Graphito presents a new set of abstracto-figurative works.
What might be considered as a radical shift in his work, is just a Resolution to devote a new series to this exercise. Speedy Graphito’s first abstract paintings appeared in his 2003 exhibition at the galerie Polaris « Wake Up » . Then again, two years ago in the same galerie Polaris, two large abstract paintings on canvas could be seen in the exhibition « Start Over ».
When looking at these geometrical structures, the viewer is free to imagine any figurative form thanks to a successful fusion between the use of colours and the invention of forms involving energies, mingling, superpositions and explosions of colours. The artist questions the development of forms throughout the history of painting, drawing, sculpture, installation and video-art with a piercing irony and a caustic analysis of Art History.
