Artist KARL LAGASSE
Karl Lagasse, born on April 4, 1981, in Paris, is a French artist. He is the creator of the One Dollar sculpture and the trophy for the 43rd edition of the Deauville American Film Festival.

Artistic career
Karl Lagasse's career began in 1996 with the sale of his first artwork in Antwerp, at the age of 15.
A few years later, in 2003, he prepared his first exhibition in Paris, where he showcased his works that blend collage and painting, as Yvaral Vasarely[4], the son of Hungarian plasticien Victor Vasarely, had suggested to him during their meeting in 1998.
He started sculpting in 2004 and found inspiration by watching Le Notti Bianche. Then he began searching for his style and started the series of «Buildings», «totem» works made from various materials. In the same year, he left Paris to move to Normandy.

In 2006, Isy Brachot (noted gallery of Brussels) dedicated an exhibition to him. Only one painting was not sold. Karl Lagasse then offered it to an enthusiast who was unable to purchase it.
In 2008, he returned to Paris to exhibit at the Espace Pierre Cardin. Paintings, sculptures, and photographs were displayed. A film about the creation of the works was also screened.
2009, the year of creation of one of the artist's most emblematic works, the One Dollar. A piece born from his admiration for the United States but also a symbol of what can be achieved with just one dollar; 'Making art with $1'.

In 2010, he was chosen to represent the Deauville community (Normandy) at the world equestrian championship 'Horsemania' held in Lexington (United States), a city twinned with the Norman seaside resort, for which he created a sculpture.
After the 'One Dollar', whose success is international, he presents another work that will also become an icon, the 'Cryptogram One'. It is at the Art Monaco fair in 2011 that the public discovers it.
To celebrate the 65th anniversary of the Cannes Film Festival in 2012, he creates a 'Building' 2.80 meters tall and 60 centimeters wide, made of concrete, wood, glass, and photographs in collaboration with Corbis, and displays it at the Carlton Cinema Club. Artists present at the festival are invited to sign the work and leave a message. Among those who do so are José Garcia, Michel Hazanavicius, Bérénice Bejo, Gad Elmaleh, as well as Cuba Gooding Jr., Tim Roth, Matthew McConaughey, and Zac Efron.
