Gianpaolo paGni

galerie modulab
28 rue mazelle

Red, yellow, green, colors fuse in the work of the Italian-Parisian artist Gianpaolo Pagni. Its creation is rich, varied: painting, drawing, installations but also communication, press, edition (references : Le Tigre, Solo ma non Troppo, Hermès, Topographie de l’art, Zoocryptage). He creates stamps that he uses as drawing tools, thus deliberately escaping the traditional gesture of the “drawer”. His work exposes a personal archeology, an ever-changing self-portrait, and amusing and / or dramatic fictions to reveal.
