Portrait
KURAR
Urban contemporary Artist
Live and work actually in France, Clermont Ferrand and Paris
KURAR falls in graffiti in the late 90s For 10 years he will paint, working on 3D, volume, and color .. With time and experience it will diversify its
techniques, Graff, Vandal, Stencil , Collage, to focus on the work definitely stencils.
Through the stencil and work on canvas, KURAR deals with current issues and encourages us to step back from our vision of society. Mixing old universe, and contemporary details in these KURAR works dealing with poetry, humor and provocation, sensitive issues such as war, religion and the consumer society.
The use and representation of childhood is one of the recurring issues and some « trademark » of KURAR. He brilliantly uses the symbol of innocence to contrast with the satirical and provocative aspect of these representations. Since a meteoric rise in 2013, marked by an exhibition at the Paris gallery Onega, he makes personal exhibitions and exhibited in galleries around the world, New York, Los Angeles, Hamburg, La Reunion, etc .. Between cynicism and poèsie, nostalgia and black humor, it affects the public by the depth and relevance of its messages.
