Description from the seller
David Négri is also known as Skunkdog, a French born "art brut" artist born in Marseille in 1968, whose works often involve 'punk style' heads and colourful robots.
This book was produced as part of an exhibition entitled 'Hors les murs' at the Galerie David Pluskwa Art Contemporain in Marseille.
The title 'Inflammable Material' is inspired by the debut album of the Northern Irish punk band Stiff Little Fingers - which was released in 1979.
The artist once said "I paint Marseille because I know it, I know my city, I am deeply immersed in it. You don't have to be anywhere else to create, Marseille is much more creative than Barcelona, London, Berlin or Paris. That's why it's essential for me."
Large, portrait style softback book with a gate fold loose dust jacket.
Laid loose, in a square cut-out to the dust jacket, is an original painting by the artist (on a square section of canvas). This is not signed - but assumed to be (and looks like) the artist's work.
The book, the dust jacket, and the artwork are all in excellent shape. The book is full of colour photos of the artist at work, of his paintings etc.
24 x 30.5 cm.
Unpaginated but approximately 60 pages.
