“If there is one thing that Blase knows how to capture with his images, it's our attention. An unclassifiable artist, this forger painter masterfully handles the art of image diversion and anachronisms. Whether it is simply funny, sometimes mocking or provocative, often satirical or even denouncing, each work is unique.
This book brings together more than fifty emblematic paintings by the artist. The accompanying texts provide a unique insight into his work.”

An innovative virtual exhibition
The idea came from the first lockdown, Blase wanted to find an alternative to closed art galleries and museums. He therefore created an innovative virtual exhibition, in collaboration with Hervé Castaing, 3D scenographer. In a universe inspired, among others, by David Lynch's "Twin Peaks", enter an empty store in the middle of a dark and strange desert. Let yourself be carried away in this mystical universe, and go to meet these mysterious paintings. The audio guide is included: click on the paintings to learn more about them.
Art meets video game
More than a simple virtual visit, the "Blase Weirdo Emporium" is a video game; halfway between an immersive exhibition and a paper chase. To progress in the visit and discover new artworks, you will have to search for clues, which will allow you to pass through the doors and discover a preview of the last controversial work of the artist: "The Rise and Fall of the Empire".
Competition: a reproduction to win
To bring a little excitement to the game, a competition will be organized as soon as the application is released. Until October 15, players will be able to try to answer a question, the answer to which is in the game. A draw will be made among the correct answers. The winner will be able to choose the reproduction of his choice from those, worth a value of 580€.

Blase is back at the Galerie Vivienne
Five years later, Blase is back at the Vivienne Gallery. His love story with the gallery started in 2014; supposed to be exhibited for 2 weeks, his show continued for over 2 years. Despite the success of the exhibition, the gallery owner preferred to sell his gallery to set up his start-up. At the time, in order to stay in this historic passage, Blase organised a fundraising campaign, but the sum raised was not enough to take over the lease of the shop. Blase then moved to the Atelier Hauteville for 3 years, constantly preparing his return to this mythical place which offers a perfect scenography for his diverted old paintings.
Blase Workshop : gallery and the official shop
More than an art gallery, the Blase Workshop is a cross between an artist's studio and a museum shop, where you can admire the artist's disruptive works, the paintings being restored, and discover the projects in progress before anyone else. You can also offer (to yourself ) a reproduction or collectors' items from Blase Art Entertainment, available exclusively at the workshop. And if you're lucky, you might even get a private tour by Blase himself...
URBANART BIENNALE® 2019
5th edition at the Völklinger Hütte - UNESCO World Heritage Site
AT Völklinger Hütte
14 April - 3 November 2019
No art form is as diverse as urban art: it is the art of the 21st century itself! Urban art includes not only abstract works of art with roots in graffiti, but also the "Freedom Walls" of the Egyptian revolution and the "Change" campaign designed by Shepard Fairy for Barack Obama. Since the turn of the millennium, urban art has been shaping a new global artistic direction that is becoming part of the collective dimension of the urban fabric while increasingly attracting the art market. As an art movement with a growing history, importance and potential, urban art is being spread worldwide, regardless of national borders or cultural differences.
Every two years the UrbanArt Biennale® at the Völklinger Hütte World Cultural Heritage Site presents the latest developments and trends in this international movement. It is the largest project of its kind in the world. Since 2011, more than 400,000 visitors have come to the biennials, while almost 300 of the most popular street artists such as Banksy, Shepard Fairey and Futura have already exhibited their creations on the site of the Völklingen Ironworks. The 5th UrbanArt Biennale ® 2019 Unlimited presents 100 artists | 120 works | 20 countries | 4 continents on a 100,000 m2 tour of the current street art scene.
