Overview

Born in Lille, France, 1978. Lives and works inTenerife

Why the arts and crafts were ever separated is a question too vast to discuss here. Yet it is a question which the artist Louis Lambert interrogates - both visually and materially, both publicly and institutionally - throughout his entire practice. Blurring the boundaries between the so-called highbrow and the low, between the vernacular and the venerated, he refuses to stand by the demarcations set by the art world, to ascribe to the either/or. Whether employing the basest of materials (the concrete which is becoming a recurring theme in his work for example), or the humblest of themes (the popular or everyday, the traditional or folkloric),

Lambert always attempts to reposition them, to adjust the framework within which they sit. He employs his three-headed alter-ego (his trois-têtes man) to offer all options and all possibilities. He uses his tripartite perspective to not proclaim but to suggest, to reveal complexity in his always hopeful, mirthful, uninhibited style.
