MARTIAL RAYSSE

Born in 1936 in Golfe-Juan (France), Martial Raysse is a visionary artist, with a fascinating and singular trajectory. From his first creations of the 1960s, icons of the pop years, to those at the beginning of the 1970s, during which he resolutely places himself in break and retreat from the art world and the dominant currents, until the ambitious pictorial production initiated in the 1980s and 1990s, with spectacular paintings proposing allegorical visions of humanity, Martial Raysse has multiplied innovations, notably by the unprecedented use of neon lights and film.
