Jazzu
France • 1983
Presentation
Jazzu is the pseudonym of a French artist. Jazzu paints as he breaths and his work seems to be placed beyond inflluences, currents or codes. The vitality and the honesty of his artistic gesture brought his works in the same shows as Combas or Speedy Graphito.
Jazzu doesn't plan his paintings, he works instinctively creating an alchemy of colors and materials. Jazzu paints from the need to translate what he perceives of today's culture and politics ; his painting might be qualified as raw, in the primitive sense of the act, but it is sensual through its texture, thrugh the humanity of the lines.
