Philippe FAVIER (1957-)

Eros Tetanus

Painter and engraver, he was born in 1957 in Lyon. A resident of the Villa Medici in 1985, this young French artist, engraver since 1981, surprises with his disconcerting dexterity, the originality of his subjects and the fantasy of the materials worked. The war scenes, the bullfights of hybrid monsters, the demons and skeletons are unleashed and take us from Goya to Picasso against a background of discreet derision.
