Born in 1926 in Saint-Brieuc, France.From his early beginnings, his work is characterized by the idea of a total world, in constant referency to photography and language. In 1946, he creates his first abstract photos with prismatic mirrors; the next year, he achieves tessalated glass lenses to distort the images.As early as 1949, he discovers the plastic impact of torn posters on walls and palisades. Shows the "Palissade des emplacements r?serv?s" at the first Biennale de Paris in 1959. He is particularly interested from 49 to 61 in the political posters forming: "La France d?chir?e".He signs in 1960 the "Declaration of Nouveau R?alisme".From 1964, he often travels to Italy where he creates giant matches and "the Biennale ?clat?e".http://www.artantide.com/artisti_BiografiaArtista?lang=2&idArtista=223
