"CRYSTALIZED EMOTIONS" IN CANNES

PEPPONE

Christophe Tixier, known as Peppone, is a passionate sculptor and collector. He has gathered thousands of diverse objects that coexist in a dense and informative jumble. His first comic books were given to him by his father, and he subsequently enriched his collection. The artist utilizes this abundance of paper to create brightly colored and variegated resin forms imbued with popular symbolism that evoke the innocence of childhood and his native territory. Peppone draws inspiration from the worlds of Star Wars, Marvel, and Walt Disney.

FRANCK TORDJMANN

Franck Tordjmann is the second french artist after Marc Chagall to be entered in the knesset, the Israeli Parliament. Music, like an impalpable air, is listened to and evaporates. We sometimes dream of being able to capture it, freeze it, to make it eternal, timeless. Franck Tordjmann realizes this dream through a series of sculptures in which instruments and music pose in a showcase of Plexiglas, freezing their lines and reflections, thus trapping their melodies. 

PAUL ROUSSO

Paul Rousso is an American-born visual artist and innovator. A prodigious perfectionist, his technique has leapt into the future, as his vision and imagination merge to embrace new conceptual and physical technology the moment they appear on the horizon. Rousso relentlessly excels at his efforts to evolve as an artist who will put forth an enduring impact on subsequent generations with his life’s work, “Flat Depth.” This concept, which he has been refining his entire professional career, is the logical progression of modern art - to render a flat object three-dimensional, or to collapse a three-dimensional object into two dimensions.
