JM Robert

Born in 1979 in Mâcon, JM Robert is a French visual artist trained at the École des Beaux-Arts in Saint-Étienne. His work explores urban memory, walls steeped in history, forgotten faces and traces of time. Blending academic painting, street art and reclaimed materials, he creates hybrid works where past and present collide. His gestures are both brutal and masterful, and his works are marked by a constant tension between destruction and creation. He exhibits regularly in France, Europe and the United States, and his work appeals to a public sensitive to the raw poetry of contemporary urban art.
