Who is the artist?
EMIR BERCUTTE, born in 1968 in Paris, Emir Bercutte develops an early sensitivity to urban landscapes and the forms of expression that traverse them. After a long period outside the institutional art scene, he fully commits to creation starting in 2010.
Passionate about street art, which he considers the most direct and vibrant of contemporary visual writings, he begins by traveling through cities around the world to document their walls. His photographic work focuses on ephemeral artworks, the traces left by the artists, and the silent dialogues between the street, architecture, and images. He photographs both the great capitals and more peripheral territories as well, building over the years a vast visual archive of global street art.
In 2023, Emir Bercutte marks a new turning point by integrating artificial intelligence into his practice. He approaches it not as a disruptive tool, but as an extension of his eye as a photographer and lover of street art. Starting from his own images and references drawn from urban culture, he creates hybrid works where the memory of walls, tags, and murals dialogues with shapes generated by AI. His compositions interrogate the notion of authorship, reproduction, and the survival of images in a digital world.
Today, Emir Bercutte’s work sits at the frontier between photography and algorithmic creation, offering a new way of thinking about street art in the era of artificial intelligence.
