lasveguix (1986) - Urban Marilyn

Protected and fast shipping. 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 pieces. Initiated into graffiti by his cousin SUOZ, he forges his visual language through contact with the walls of Paris and London. His work sits within an artistic lineage where the great names of urban and contemporary art dialog. It features 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 stencils, Invader’s pixel universe, and the iconic force of Shepard Fairey. Without ever imitating them, Lasveguix asserts a personal, instantly recognizable handwriting. Torn posters, spray paint, acrylic, Posca and reliefs compose real « wall skins », where tears, overlaps and traces of time become witnesses to a collective memory. Each work reveals a dialogue between material, 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 attest 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 held at Roland-Garros, the District 13 Art Fair at the Hôtel Drouot, in Monaco and at several iconic 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 depict the walls; he reveals their soul, making urban heritage, memory and creation converse in a profoundly contemporary and timeless work.
