Jisbar is a French pop-street artist born in 1989. He lives and works between Paris and Amsterdam. Jisbar is famous worldwide for being the first artist to reinterpret classical art masterpiece figures such as Mona Lisa, Frida Kahlo and others from Klimt and Warhol with his personal style of pop and street art.
This striking blend of influences shaped a clear and unique identity that inspires a lot of artists and brands across the world today.
Each artwork surpasses the idea of a simple remake as it is enriched with words, slogans, numbers and codes that help create a new story to decrypt. It challenges every person who looks at it to find their own clues by focusing on every single detail. The abundant signs generate new angles inside which the spectator finds new elements and interpretations every time they look at the painting.
JISBAR'S PLAYGROUND
In 2019, we had the pleasure to inaugurate Jisbar’s first-ever exhibition in Asia in Bangkok. On this occasion, he showed about twenty artworks specially made for the exhibition that was held at the famous SO/ Sofitel Hotel. It was an amazing opportunity for the artist to set the paintings in the stunning decor of a space overlooking the whole Thai capital. We also partnered with BMW to create the first BMW Art Bikes.
The Bangkok Post, MGR online and Latitudes covered the event, from the reveal of the paintings and the customized Art bikes to Jisbar’s famous live paintings, all of which attracted more than a hundred collectors on opening day. Feeling playful, Jisbar even rode in one of the BMW bikes and tagged a few Mickey Mouse heads on the glass wall, surprising every spectator. The exhibition remained on display for the public for over two months.
