French artist Nikolas Fouré was born in 1976
He lives in Rennes and teaches at ENSA Clermont-Ferrand
"Inscribing, tracing, assembling and making time are my tools. The diversity of materials and media I use is a necessity for me. Gestures and materials are as much vocabulary as syntactic forms. My plastic proposals question our environment, its representations, stereotypes and idiosyncrasies." Nikolas Fouré
Nikolas Fouré's artistic practice encompasses sculpture, drawing and installation.
His research focuses on the environment, our environment: architectural, natural, social... concrete data that are gradually transformed into abstract forms, imagined and yet very much a product of reality.
In his works on paper, gestures are repeated, sometimes on a daily basis, giving rise to an almost obsessive seriality. The question of time comes to the fore when the accumulation of strokes on paper reveals the innumerable repetitions of the hand.

Nikolas Fouré, Anatomie du Ciel
Musée Manoli (35) 14 june - 18 sept. 2023Nikolas Fouré at Musée Manoli 2023 | In the continuity of its year dedicated to the sky, the MANOLI Museum invites Nikolas Fouré. His artistic practice turns as much towards sculpture as drawing or installation. Through his multiple formal researches, the artist tries to represent the relations that we weave with the world that we inhabit. By setting up simple and regular protocols (involving the repetition of gestures and motifs) he accumulates, condenses and reproduces basic elements, playing with their imaginary potential to signify portions of clouds or skies.Read more -
