Hervé Di Rosa


Biography

Herve Di Rosa was one of the founding members of the French art movement Figuration Libre. This movement exploded onto the art scene in France, in the early 1980’s.

At the same time, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Keith Haring and Kenny Scharf were starting their careers in the United States, and from the very beginning the two groups formed a strong comradery, exhibiting together both in Europe and the US.

Basquiat and Haring both died young and their promise as great artists were cut short.

More than any other artist from the above mentioned group, Di Rosa’s influence on an international scale has been prolific. He has lived and worked in many countries and exhibited in galleries and museums around the world.

Probably his most sought after works are the paintings from the 1980’s during the time when the Figuration Libre movement and their American counter parts were at the peak of their fame, shocking the art world.

Robert Mc Donald (of Bond Latin Gallery) first worked with Hervé Di Rosa and his brother, Buddy Di Rosa in the mid 1980’s while he worked as the director of Wolf Schultz Gallery in San Francisco, CA. During this time, Robert curated two major shows for not only Herve Di Rosa, but for all the artist from the Figuration Libre movement.
