Michael Viviani

Michael Viviani is a French artist born in 1981, in La Ciotat, France. He works and lives in Marseille.

His work is heavily inspired by movie and music posters, which he uses to meticulously recreate the life of a 1960s and 1970s billboard.

Capturing the playful innocence of softcore pornographic film posters from this period, his work has a naivety and authenticity, present in both his film and musical work.

Like all masters of collage, he manages to coherently and effortlessly blend countless scraps of poster into a single overarching narrative, which presents the viewer with an authentic insight into time.
