Description

The energy of the Bronx is expressed here with graphic precision. This spray paint captures the essence of New York street art. The black line, wide and assured, breaks the composition. It creates immediate visual dynamism. 
The influence of Pop Art is manifested by the use of saturated colors. Red, yellow, and pink clash. Shapes evoking the world of comics emerge from the background. A blue gaze, stylized and intense, watches the viewer from the lower corner. 
The technical mastery of the spray can brings a particular fluidity. Each color area is sharp. The contrast between the bright blocks and the dark lines structures the space. 
The whole reflects the codes of advertising and urban culture. The canvas plays with the superposition of elements. A detail of pink projections punctuates the right part of the composition.

Presentation

Crash (John Matos) is a graffiti artist born in the Bronx on October 11, 1961. He is one of the major protagonists of the ?spray can (R)evolution?.

He starts to do graffiti while he is still very young, on the New York trains, before passing to canvas.

He joins the Sidney Janis Gallery in 1983. His works are acquired by the most important collections in the world, from the MoMA in New Yorks to the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam.

The public gets to know him when he co-produces, with Keith Haring, the Peter Stuyvesant advertising campaign. In France, he achieves fame after taking part in the 5/5 Figuration Libre exhibition France-USA at the Musée d'art moderne de la Ville de Paris in 1984. This exhibition featured the work of artists such as Basquiat, Boisrond, Combas, Keith Harring, Tseng Kwong Chi, Di Rosa... and John Matos Crash.

His style is close to comics, he uses flamboyant colors that remind us of the world of advertising and his works assert themselves as pure producs of the contemporary world. He is following the Pop Art lineage perfectly and raises again the so-called subculture to the status of ?high art?.
