Inside Les Frigos

And still more pictures from a week ago. I’m getting good at making these last, aren’t I?

The logo-type thingy of Sacha Schwartz, the artist whose workshop we went to see. Also, you know, a door. On which the logo is painted. Which leads to said workshop.

Students in the aforesaid workshop.

Arts! Rather impale-y, really.

Photobucket
More arts!

The artist. Apparently he found the frame in the street, and decided to make a painting for it, and the first thing that came to mind based on the dimensions and style was himself as St. Sebastian.

The piece he was working on at the moment. That would be his wife.

He had a bunch on Aesop’s fables.

Weird disturbing kiddie soldiers.

Building something. Hard to tell in the photo but the joints in the wooden structure have real screws, and the shorts are real fabric. Also a few pictures above, note the real cheese box in the crow’s mouth. Interesting juxtaposition of the real and the highly stylized. The guy was quite pleasantly laid-back and non-pretentious. I had a sort video clip of him talking but don’t seem to have uploaded it. Probably just as well because I think since I was standing rather close to his radio the hip-hop music might have drowned him out a bit on the camera’s mic. At least I recall it being hip-hop. Unfortunately I don’t seem to have taken any pictures of Mr. Schwartz himself, apart from him as St. Sebastian and the non-uploaded video clip. Oh well.

Oh, and isn’t this a clever way of keeping all your tools neatly arranged?
