‘Weird
&
Casual’
Saturday 16th JULY marks the day that prolific French artist AZAD presents his first individual show, displaying a collection of his work - 'Weird & Casual' at the Everyman Cinema, Belsize Park, London.
Exploring the different and sometimes hidden facets of human nature with depth and affection, AZAD draws upon the most random and obscure elements of our direct environment as well as our very intimate emotions to create a body of work where reality is juxtaposed to fantasy. Sometimes messy and intricate, sometimes minimalistic and essential he creates artwork that questions the codes, order and hierarchy of our society.
An eponym print limited to an edition of 20 will be released on the occasion alongside all the original work displayed and made available for sale at the Every Man Cinema and online at - www.lesmouvementdesnuages.com
As a single child, born in Paris, raised in the 80’s, AZAD developed an imagination that would inspire numerous characters, set ups and stories. It provided him a playground with no limitations, and importantly no rules. Coming to accept he would never turn in to a grown-up, he keeps this spontaneous and free approach when he picks up a pen. He simply draws, paints, cuts, assembles and creates without concerns for a meaning or a defined style, without restriction of medium or genre. He explores the possibilities, has fun with it and displays the results when it happens to look good.
AZAD will be present and performing live art throughout the launch weekend (16th & 17th July)
'Weird & Casual' will run from July 16th to August 19th 2011
