Painter to Lyon - France
France
Maxime Blachère, born in 1980, is a multidisciplinary artist from Savoie who lives in Lyon.
Initially a physical education teacher, he has been devoting himself fully to art since 2016.
Maxime is best known under various pseudonyms such as Blach and Max le Tagueur, the latter being his alter ego in the world of graffiti.
Blachère has won awards for his work, notably for his murals and his works exhibited internationally.
His artistic approach blends humour, social criticism and pop culture, often with an offbeat tone.
His work, in a variety of media including murals and paintings, combines the energy of street art with a critical analysis of contemporary society. He hijacks the codes of graffiti to create works that are both aesthetic and provocative while remaining accessible.
