Robert Combas
French painter and artist, born in 1957 in Lyon.
At a time when conceptual art dominates, he and Hervé Di Rosa promote the movement of free figuration.
Contemporary artist capital: only French to appear each year in the Artprice ranking of the 500 most highly rated contemporary artists in the world. There too, popular culture is crossed from one side to the other. This melting pot of TV, sex, comics etc... fills his work with anxiety, humor and vitality.
