Ernest Pignon Ernest ( B. 1942 ) The French Fluxus Street artist was born in Nice France in 1942. He is one of the founding fathers of Street Art in France and worldwide. Since 1966 he has made the street both the setting and subject of his extraordinary works of art. By the 1970's his posters of poet Arthur Rimbaud could be seen all over France. With charcoal and black chalk, he creates life size figures that trigger face to face encounters with passers by on the streets where he pastes them up all over the city of Paris. he uses dreams and poetry in alleys and streets based on the principles of ephemeral Urban Art.
Pignon's work inspires and defend many major social and political issues through his artistic expressions including the bombing of Nagasaki, The AIDS epidemic in South Africa, and the struggle against Apartheid. A master of his artistry, Pignon Ernest manages to capture the beauty and darkness of the world.
