That’s what we say about French Connection Art Exhibition, bringing the top talented pop artists masterpieces to Bangkok. First time ever with MozART Advisory joining hands at Chin’s Gallery from 9th May 2019 – 15th June 2019, LAURENT MACALUSO, CEO and FOUNDER of MozART company begins the 2019 with the inspiration of new modernity and passion in Arts, representing THREE notorious pop artists Kostar, Jisbar and Nicolas Darbon.
KOSTAR is a French artist born in the 70's in Paris. He became popular in the 1990's for street art and graffitti, when he uses to paint walls and various surfaces (trains, trucks, subways…) all around the world (USA, Europe, Asia) for TV shows, sports or brands events. While he was Based in Beijing in 2013, his artworks, exhibited in Chinese and French galleries, got a new dimension, with the goal of expressing humor and positive vibes, like his PSCIYL project: Put Some Color Into Your Life. Humor and colors, are two of the main characteristic of his works. Kostarhas given “Urban Art” a whole new definition –This revolutionary artist moves us through dynamic images, and thought provoking phrases; he takes a leap of faith and chooses the path of passion and the unknown, rather than safety and conformity. Kostaris constantly evolving with new materials such as neon lights, screws, sculptures, photography and film. What remains constant is his razor sharp with and incisive humor.
“KOSTAR’s work, his passion and his art are a mirror of society, a glimpse of what is taboo and thoughts that dare not be verbalized.” –Martin GERLIER, art curator
Jisbar is an artist, born in 1989 who has circulated his art around Paris for 10 years. His art deals with the front of pop culture references. His creations update our saturated society with media and pop references, which he takes and interprets with his own universe. Fashion, music, lifestyle, the freestyle mind and other expressions found in the streets are the elements which build his style.
Jisbar likes to say that each of his works represent « moments of life », like a memory which are made forever in a photo album. This sincerity pushes the spectator to concentrate on every single detail in order to understand the entirety of its meaning.
Jisbar is an artist who paints impulsively and applies himself to demonstrate that creative spontaneity. This allows him to create stories who animates his daily life and the look that he wears on our society while keeping its authenticity.
