quot;Artiste Ouvrier, whose real name is Pierre-Benoit Dumont, is a stencil artist who uses his talents ont the walls of Paris for a decade. This artist offers us a different vision of what can be street art, namely an art elaborate, very detailed and precise in its execution.
The themes he gets onto are very differents. He realises copies of masterpiece, as the famous painting by Gustave Caillebotte "Le radeau de la Méduse" that he took over and adpated beutiffully to his technique, as well as religious figures as Paravati, the Virgin... And also, African artists as the Ethiopian singer Alemayeshu Eshete who enjoyed a big success int he 60s.
His works very meticulous, complex and with a great imagination are also very colorul and vivid : he uses red, orange, yellow, green... And if you see one of his stencils in the street, come closer and notice the precision and the fineness of lines, and the abundance and richness of the decorative features of his style. True works of art displayed for free on the walls."

Gustave Caillebotte never painted this. That is Théodore Géricault who painted "le radeau de la Méduse". Caillebotte painting reproduced here is "Les Raboteurs de parquet ". (The Floor Scrapers)
