Marcel Alocco lives and works in Nice, where he was born in 1937. He collaborates with the Fluxus movement and later critically participates in the development of the Support / Surface aesthetic. He appears in various exhibitions of the Nice School. Since the late 1960s, Alocco has been working on the rapprochement and recognition of cultural images, from the paintings of Lascaux to the logos of P. and T., within a strategy of fragmentation that, through tears, seams, unraveling, and reweaving, involves both the treated images and their support in a single gesture.
