This project is about creating "covers" of classical oil paintings from 16th and 19th century masters. Torn appart from Art History's books, those printed reproductions are reinterpreted with a quite different kind of paint: spray paint.
  Confronting those two mediums which time opposes, not only rises the question of our Art History legacy as contemporary artists but also the question distinguishing Appropriation from Inspiration. 

This project was supposed to be exhibited in NYC with an opening March 31st 2020. Because of the Covid-19 crisis this solo show has been cancelled and, I as a French artist, had to rush back to Paris (my hometown).
