The second episode of "Urban Art Riviera" takes us this time to Antibes, for an unusual experience at the heart of the Coul'Heures d'Automne festival. For this new episode, César Malfi invites two special guests of the Coul'Heures d'Automne festival: Sébastien Hamard, the festival organizer, and Andrea Ravo Mattoni, a renowned street artist who created a spectacular fresco as part of the event.
Sébastien Hamard, a true art enthusiast, takes us on a journey through the history of the Coul'Heures d'Automne festival, which is gaining notoriety as an innovative platform for urban and contemporary art. He shares his vision and goals, including creating a space where the public can interact with art in an unexpected and immersive way.
Andrea Ravo Mattoni, for his part, is a singular artist who marks the festival with his unique approach to urban art. Known for his ability to mix contemporary and classical elements, he transcends the boundaries of street art by using chiaroscuro techniques to reproduce and interpret classical masterpieces, while remaining faithful to the aerosol, his favorite tool. His creations, dazzling in their realism, find their place in atypical urban spaces, thus offering the public an unprecedented access to the treasures of art.
Andrea Ravo Mattoni is driven by a profound mission: to allow as many people as possible to immerse themselves in the wonders of art, making it accessible in public spaces. His work is a harmonious fusion between past and present, between tradition and innovation, creating a visual dialogue between eras.
