Art Ernest Pignon-Ernest
Dieses Werk hat mich sofort angezogen. Die monochrome Darstellung, die feinen Schattierungen und die perfekt gewählten Proportionen lassen die Figur fast aus der Wand heraustreten.
Besonders spannend ist das Zusammenspiel mit der Architektur. Die Nische wird zur Bühne, die verwitterte Fassade zum Rahmen. Dadurch entsteht eine stille, fast meditative Szene, die einen Moment der Ruhe in den öffentlichen Raum bringt. Street Art muss nicht laut sein. Manchmal erzählt sie ihre Geschichte ganz leise.
Pia Thauwaldcreated from @sakhelosno17, inspired by street artist Ernest Pignon-Ernest
Ernest Pignon-Ernest (born 1942 in France)is a French artist and pioneer of urban art. Since the 1960s, he has placed life-size black-and-white drawings in public and historic locations, connecting his art with the history and meaning of each site.
His works are deliberately ephemeral. They are meant to age, deteriorate and eventually disappear. This transience is an essential part of his artistic concept.
For Pignon-Ernest, the site is the starting point of his work. He seeks to capture both the visible aspects - space, light and colours - and the invisible ones - history, memories and symbolic meaning.
