CURRENT MISSION

save the world

ABOUT ME

Well, before I was student in an art school, actually I intent to be an artist (do exhibitions, publishing, often I participate in fire jungling spectacles...) I like to move in the world making travel diaries and strange projects, I'm interested in building bamboo or natural constructions (I want to learn more), skiing, climbing, hiking in nature, participate in collective yards in alternative sites...My personal website ishttp://issuu.com/antoineperezHere you can see few sculptures and drawings I did, the other views are from exhibitions I organise since 2008 in a big garden near Annecy in the Alpes. The goal is to share collective and ephemeral art in a place which don't serve to present art normally.
I was an active member during 2 years in a cultural association named "Los Plumberos Ambulantes" (LPA)http://www.myspace.com/losplumberosWe organised various events like concerts of various music (songs, acoustic music, reggae, electro, drum'n'bass, hip hop, beat box,...), art installations (more strange, more good), exhibitions of paintings, drawings, sculptures, performances, circus, theatre, videoprojection of shorts and full-lenght films, workshops, short residences with an exhibition at the end,...
Now this is finished, I am in an other place "la Ciergerie", realy more big, with a collective garage, an art studio, a stage for theatre and concerts, room for games, for training of circus and theatre sessions, chill out.

PHILOSOPHY

to share, to make projects,...(I know, I 'm repeating me)
collect waste in nature (I hate this)
"painting no exist to decorate houses. It is a weapon to attack enemy"
(Pablo Picasso)
