Karl Lagasse, a renowned artist, rose to prominence in 2009 with his One Dollar sculptures, ranking that same year among Artprice’s top ten sculptors under 30. In 2012, the New York publication Farameh named him one of the fifty leading contemporary artists inspired by traditional American icons in its book FOR WHICH IT STANDS: Americana in Contemporary Art. More recently, in 2016, at the Art Paris Art Fair, the President of the French Republic warmly congratulated Karl on his impressive 2-meter bronze sculpture, One Dollar, exhibited at the Grand Palais.

Karl’s artistic journey began at the age of 7 with collages, inspired by his encounter with sculptor César Baldaccini. He later turned to tagging and graffiti in the Paris Métro while remaining passionate about collage. Artist Yvaral Vasarely encouraged him to combine his tags with his collages. In 2003, Karl prepared his first exhibition in Paris, which led to his first solo exhibition in 2006 at the Isy Brachot gallery in Brussels. In 2008, he returned to Paris with an exhibition combining paintings, sculptures, and video elements at the Espace Pierre Cardin.

Karl particularly enjoys unveiling his work at international exhibitions. In 2011, he was represented by the Bel Air Fine Art gallery at the Art Monaco fair with his creation Cryptogram One. The following year, he presented his One Dollar works on the theme “In God We Trust” at the Artco France gallery. His 2016 solo exhibition at the Atrium gallery in Marbella, Spain, was opened by the mayor, who praised his work in front of the international press.
