Jean-Marc Calvet “Between You and Me”
Chelsea 27 (Artemisia Gallery, Azart Gallery and MZ Urban Art)
This event has ended.
Jean Marc Calvet is a French artist living and working in Nicaragua. He is a legitimate self-taught artist, an outsider in every spirit of the word.
His dramatic and desperate life up until the age of 37 which was full of destructive personal demons came to a tumultuous low point when he decided to take his own life. However instead of death he found a large container of commercial house paint and art. His first works were crude explosions of his inner turmoil exploding on any surface that was close, with any materials that would leave a trace. His salvation came from realizing instead of allowing the monsters in his life to wreak havoc on him personally, he was able to release them and imprison them on canvas.
