Invader ‘gets up’ higher than ever with his latest project: Art4Space…
The prolific Parisian artist who has ‘Invaded’ cities around the world takes over a new territory by sending a piece into the stratosphere, becoming the first artist to send an artistic creation this far above the earth’s surface.
A pioneer of the International street art scene, Invader creates works based on 8-bit graphics of vintage video games, translating pixels into mosaic tiles and rubiks cubes. Fifteen years after scattering these works across the earth with successive invasions on a planetary scale, the project has grown into a worldwide installation. This marks their first suborbital sojourn and the first time a visual artist or artistic creation has ever crossed the borders of the globe.
While preparing his exhibition for the Pulse art fair with Jonathan LeVine Gallery in Miami, the artist-activist took advantage of his proximity to the Space Coast, making his first space foray, a project he had long been planning.
On August 20, 2012, the mosaic Space One flew aboard a special device designed by the artist who adapted advanced technologies with his own resources. Equipped with a camera, the weather balloon crossed terrestrial atmospheres for a short stay in space before returning, bringing the premier astronautic work back to Earth along with a series of photographic images showing the mosaic work’s perspective distance from space.
These photos will inspire the artist’s new work presented in a solo exhibition at Pulse-Miami art fair with Jonathan Levine Gallery from December 6—9, 2012, during Art Basel Miami Beach. In conjunction with this presentation at the art fair, a publication chronicling this epic journey will be released as well as a short film and a Miami Invasion guide (a map of his mosaic works placed in locations throughout the city).
