D’Stassi Art in London Shoreditch are thrilled to announce ‘Didier Chamizo: Rebel Soul’, the first exhibition in the UK of the French activist and reformed convict who harnessed the power of art to turn his life around and caught the attention of the Cartier Foundation.
Didier Chamizo’s UK Debut show will be revealed with an opening night on 7th June at D’Stassi Art, with a rare appearance by Chamizo. Chamizo’s art mirrors his life, with protest, prison and a pardon by the former President of France.
‘Didier Chamizo: Rebel Soul’ will feature 19 vivid figurative portraits and a custom Harley Davidson hand-painted by Chamizo. Inspired by lettrism, a unique alternative to graffiti and tag art, Chamizo is renowned for creating lettric abstraction-figuration, a style marked by raw, untamed expression and deep emotional truths.
