Alëxone Dizac

This book represents the manifesto of Alëxone Dizac’s work, one of the best-known French street artists. This accompanying catalogue for the À Cœur Ouvert exhibition inaugurated at the Galerie Poirel in Nancy, opens the doors to Alëxone’s universe and to his heart. Large canvases, installations, drawings, and the most disparate interventions animate this publication, as a hymn to life and art, and an escape from reality. Alëxone is capable, through the changing colours that characterise the artist’s works, of giving life to thousands of creatures staring up at us, apparently innocent and funny but from a certain point of view secretly perverse. Divided into five sections that recall five different moods, À Cœur Ouvert takes the reader on a journey through a fantastic story populated by penguins, marvellous characters and thousands of other creatures that are just waiting to be discovered.
