John Hamon

John Hamon is a French artist active since the 2000s, from Paris to international level. Highly inspired by graffiti, public advertising and politics, he builds his approach around the concept of promotion.

Starting with a photo of an identity card taken 17 years ago, he will create champagne displays on a massive scale in the street, as well as large-scale projections on monuments. This is how he imposes the artistic experience through the constant reproduction and continuous dissemination of his work; the enthusiasm will be total.

The artist’s motto: «It is promotion that makes an artist or the zero degree of art.» Promotion is an artistic action.
