Stéphane Moscato: Terrain de jeu

Born in 1973, the Marseille-based artist Stéphane Moscato draw his inspiration on punk-rock culture, and proposes a subtle and ba-anced work between a very graphic and contemporary visual result and a social and polical use of mythology and symbols from history of art.

Wheras collage and stencil techniques are considered as old-fashion by art critics, Stéphane Moscato takes the opposite view in approaching in an original way the notion of original artwork and reproductibility. He realizes unique and polysemous artworks (never reproduced) which enable him to follow the meaning that can be drawn from theses pieces of street.
The exhibition Terrain de jeu, the first show at Chenus Longhi gallery will present a selection of brand new pieces on canvas, book covers, paper and posters. Through the subject of introspection and self-knowledge, the artist reviews the emotions we feel as part of social interactions.
