T
his very typical Saint-Rémy establishment with its
sunny personality showcases the work of the artist
Maxence Di Marzio – his dazzling pieces infuse the
soul with joyful energy.
Maxence absolutely loves seducing his buyers; they’re of
all ages, and hail from multiple countries. "is interna-
tional success has earned him a respected place in the
world of Art.
“I try to convey my conception of society via an eternal
struggle between perfection and imperfection. "e basic
values of friendship, family and love are what really mat-
ter to me. It’s important to weave in a sense of aestheticism
- which I get from my research and inspiration - to create
my own personal style without skipping any steps.”
A NOD TO THE POP ART YEARS
Pop Art is a new departure for Maxence Di Marzio, using
cement, ripped canvases, paving stones and other bricks.
"ere are many characters from comic books, and extracts
from popular TV shows. Pop Art explores the paradoxical,
the witty and even the reassuring - always bursting with
energy. Images are frozen in time so that their street-cred
simplicity can be closely inspected.
His is a nod to the “Pop Art Years,” an era embraced by a so-
ciety that was experiencing a gaping emptiness at that time.
"e sixties were an optimistic decade: it was easier to travel,
TV was popping up everywhere. Art and Advertising collided
along with everything else in the constant stream of new things.
It’s made us smile, just like Maxence does. He never uses
laser cuts and has a craftsman’s approach, giving us a
thoroughly enjoyable treasure hunt through his work.
