Georges Rousse

(French, born 1947)

Georges Rousse is a French contemporary artist known for large-scale photographs depicting painted alterations within existing spaces. When photographed, these complex interventions appear as perspectival, optical illusions or digital effects rather than installations within the scene itself. Rousse often uses soon-to-be demolished or renovated buildings in his artworks, since his on-site paintings are not meant to last but rather exist solely as photographs. Born on July 28, 1947 in Paris, France, he went on to study an interesting combination of medicine, architectural photography, and printing techniques. His hallmark works are influenced by both Land Art and the legendary Modernist Kazimir Malevich’s paintings of simple shapes atop white backgrounds. He has been widely exhibited, starting with his first exhibition at the Galerie de France in Paris in 1981, with later exhibitions at the Art Center in Lyon, the Missokhan Gallery in Kobe, and the Johyun Gallery in Seoul. Rousse lives and works in Paris, France.
