Artist BioPascal Guetta presents dynamic, bold works that present a narrative of impermanence withinurban street culture and commercial development, invoking an evolutionary art. Born in LosAngeles, Guetta draws from the raw textures of city life—peeling billboards, graffiti-coveredwalls, and fading advertisements—to build rich, tactile compositions using plaster, paint, collage,and macro-photography.Guetta’s work marries the familiar materials of pigments, paint, and spray with industrialmaterials like gypsum and tar to create large, textured works that reflect the way urban facadesbloom and break down over time. For most of the body, the story lives in the building process asmuch as in the ultimate piece. In the studio, he can be seen applying and removing, insuccession, hundreds of times per session.This approach echoes the style and applications of artists amongst the Nouveau Realismmovement, known for using urban detritus in their art. The chromatic flare channels the codedsignals of urban labor: a system of neon symbols used by workers to communicate acrossnoise, dust, and movement. Pascal’s later work exemplifies the techniques employed intraditional fresco painting, but with the added irreverence of repeated, intentional erosion.The incorporation of macro-photography into his practice, Guetta elevates details that aretypically dismissed or unseen. In capturing close-up images of his original artworks, he invitesthe viewer to his lookout, a multiplied study: first, the street faces, expounded in his works,captured in photographs. These editions highlight the detail and serendipities like cracks,pigment trails, chipped surfaces, and reframes decay as transformation, presenting a slower,more intimate reading of the workGuetta’s work operates like a visual archive of forgotten or discarded messages, inviting viewersto consider: what stories do our walls tell? What does a city remember? What gets erased, andwhat refuses to disappear?Pascal lives with his wife and daughter in Miami Beach, FL. He keeps a studio in West LosAngeles. Gallery Statement“What you’re looking at isn’t just a painting—it’s a living surface, a moment of culturalmemory held in layers of beautiful decay.”Pascal Guetta is an exceptional emerging voice in contemporary abstraction, onewhose work captures the rhythm and rawness of urban life through a tactile, deeplyconsidered process. His pieces are constructed from materials you might find on aconstruction site (plaster, paint, adhesives) yet the result is anything but industrial. Whathe creates are elegant, richly layered surfaces that echo the weathered walls of citieslike Los Angeles, where advertisements fade, peel, and overlap with graffiti and grit.They're not just paintings—they're time capsules.Guetta’s art sits comfortably in the tradition of artists like JR, Ed Ruscha, and MarkBradford, but with a distinct materiality and narrative language that feels uniquely his.His early training under the guidance of his uncle, a renowned painter, gave him a rareblend of technical mastery and commercial awareness. You see it in the work: intuitiveyet incredibly precise, chaotic yet curated.A macro-photograph of the original work offered as edition print introduces a fresh,collectible entry point for clients interested in both photography and painting, and theyshow just how expansive Guetta’s vision is. He’s not repeating motifs—he’s building alanguage of surfaces.From a collector’s perspective, this is a moment of access. Guetta is early in his solocareer, but the foundation is strong: conceptually rigorous, materially unique, andculturally resonant. His work speaks to time, impermanence, and reinvention—themesthat feel especially relevant in today’s world. And in terms of placement, his pieces workbeautifully in both modern and raw architectural settings.
