« VENI VIDI», grand retour de l’artiste sur la scène New Yorkaise, marque une nouvelle étape dans sa carrière. L’artiste élargit ici avec une grande justesse son prisme d’observation aux discriminations politiques. On retrouve dans ses tableaux des figures politiques, d’Abraham Lincoln à Lyndon B. Johnson qui ont marqué l’histoire de l’abolition de l’esclavage et de la ségrégation.  Il s’intéresse cette fois aussi plus largement aux grandes discriminations sociétales actuelles, de la question LGBTQ aux différences hommes-femmes.   L’exposition dévoile un ensemble de toiles grand format et une série de petits tableaux de portraits masqués et énigmatiques. 

“VENI VIDI” marks the artist’s long-awaited return to the New York scene and a new stage in his career. With this exhibition, the artist broadens his focus to encompass different forms of acutely observed political discrimination. His paintings are populated by various political figures who played a part in the history of the abolition of slavery and segregation, from Abraham Lincoln to Lyndon B. Johnson. He also takes a closer look at the major forms of discrimination that mark contemporary society, including the LGBTQ question and gender differences. The exhibition presents a collection of large-format pieces and a series of small paintings featuring masked, enigmatic portraits.
