JAZ-FRANCO FASOLI . Solo Show

RAS Gallery Barcelona . Carrer Doctor Dou 10
Opening Thursday May 17th from 7.30 till 10 pm
Exhibition runs from May 17th till June 16th
Curated by Maximiliano Ruiz

Jaz is Franco Fasoli, a respected artist that evolves like the ‘jazz’ his name evokes.

From his pioneering past as the most prolific graffiti writer in Argentina, he’s mastered the art of spray-paint taking it to another level and incorporating other materials, such as tar, oil and soil on large scale murals.

For his first European solo show at Ras, produced by Suben and curated by Maximiliano Ruiz, Jaz has reduced the scale of his raw looking figures without compromising the massiveness of their shape and intriguing textures.

In the whole body of work, the duality within one and the clash of forces is a constant, all reinforced by a subtle, yet highly attained technique. The show will comprise a broad selection of works on paper and some larger scale canvases.

His latest participation’s include: Art Basel Miami, G40 Richmond, Living Walls Atlanta, Latir Latino Lima, Open Walls Baltimore, Mamutt México City, Meeting of Styles Buenos Aires.

Check his video interview made while his visit to Mexico City on December 2011.
