Nearly a year after the exhibition "ERRO, the Madman of Images," the Besseiche Lartigue Gallery was eager to continue the Erró adventure by presenting around twenty works created between 1961 and 2011.
Fundamentally. Erro is, for me, an artist who will mark our era. As a true witness to our societies, he has never beenas "current" as he is today. The irony and sarcasm that emanate from his works never cease to remind us of this.
Iconic figure of contemporary art. Erró has been producing a prolific body of work with rare diversity for nearly 50 years now. That is why I was equally keen to exhibit paintings, collages, and sculptures, as well as works ranging from the 1960s to more recent creations.
"Super Erró!" aims to revisit the highlights of his work, exploring the major themes that constitute it: from thefantastic and organic crowds that populate his early works to the collages, as well as the superheroes that traversehis work from one end to the other.
Finally, his "homage" series to the great masters of art history condense as many visual quotes as there are possible variations for the artist.
