LAUSANNE ART FAIR 2023

Born in Paris in the 1960s, Patrick Rubinstein was influenced by the British rock spirit and American pop culture of his childhood. Combining the principle of the Dooble, which consists of merging two images designed to blend into one, applied to an accordion-like support, and the Triple, which creates a variation in perception through movement by means of lateral views created by slats perpendicular to the central image, he gives the works a lively and perpetually renewed aspect.

Leo Manelli is known for his ability to merge classical painting with anachronistic elements drawn from art and luxury, creating a unique blend of eras and cultures. A talented realistic painter, he meticulously reproduces masterpieces, often sourced from prestigious museum collections. However, his creative process remains a mystery to those around him. Leo Manelli appropriates these works to bridge the centuries and breathe life into artworks of timeless beauty.

Richard Orlinski has been the biggest selling contemporary French artist in the world since 2015. The artist took inspiration from pop culture, everyday objects, popular things. After creating his first work, a bright red resin crocodile, Richard Orlinski soon developed new sculptures, often of animals, all symbols of freedom, power and passion. The result: electrifying works of art, in pop colors and a faceted style, that would be seen all around the world.

Daniel Airam is a French artist born in Lyon in 1958. After studying graphic arts in Lyon, he started working in printing. Since 1982, he is committed to painting. In the vertigo of a world where everything is wavering, where there is no longer a reliable model, will the image still oppose its capacity to dazzle, its power to be, to finally exist as it conceives itself ?

​​​

His work consists in exposing an alternation of full and empty, materializing a skeleton, breaking down the forms into successive layers. A movement is created by this sequenced representation. It is thus a kinetic vision of a static object that the artist offers us, in particular thanks to the wandering of its observer, which allows a different interpretation according to its point of observation.

The background is made up of thousands of photographic fragments of feminine curves. In the foreground stands an image that radiates intensity, a symbol of intimacy, a face. The photo mosaics of Joël Moens de Hase first began to emerge in 2011. This digital art form, a contemporary alternative of pixel art and pointillism, has the ability to surprise and seduce through the originality and aesthetics of the concept.
