Fabrice Ebro in Moscow

[SergeiSK]

Vendee scoffer
This is not the first visit of the artist and his creations in the Russian capital, but the first such large-scale and almost entirely invented specially for Russia. If there is one thing in the world of art that neither is on the narrative, so this classic French art, and love and ability to handle text Iberia - a direct descendant of some Poussin.
For example, he's going to take an exhibition in Moscow. What do normal, oriented primarily to the visual artist? Ibert is also taking a major national visual character - Matryoshka, but further divides it, and fills the resulting carcass meanings as any your true philosopher taxidermist. His matryoshka in the division in two is similar to the sarcophagus, and the emptiness of each such separate shelter, according to the principle of nested dolls, tends to infinity. Infinity is immortality. So much for the exhibition's title, that's the main symbol of Russia on Iberia. Immortality - a Siberian frosts. Immortality - a text of ancient icons. Immortality - that mathematics itself, always present in the works and arguments of Iberia.
Mathematics and mathematical symbols appear in a conversation about this artist is not accidental. However, the attraction to the art of victory, and he enrolled at the Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Nantes.
His career was taking shape very well: he drew well, but still better mocking, thought, spoke and was fascinated with the ideas of others. Words and irony - which may be better for this French artist? At first they were only a few, rubber aliens, scattered throughout the town's fountains Bessines and all of its relying anthropomorphic creatures holes worked additional sources for the jets. .
Gradually, from the gigantic Ebro in the material transition to global thinking. This could be the carpet, appealing to the affection, the mask for scuba diving, where instead of glass - turned into a mirror, cube soccer ball, cap-radar, tree-antenna, six-fingered glove hand, a car with two hoods. All of today made 146, and the artist is not going to stop.
Offer does not stop and the public: so in 2001 he let his audience in search of hidden on the Tokyo POF, and then repeated several times this treasure hunting in other cities. In what exactly the game is going to play Ibert with Muscovites, it is known only to himself. Cyrus Dolinina
