Erick Monjour pour Art Power

Erick Monjour is the “World Painting” movemement founder, created in 1997. His painting mixes all representations, from all artistic periods, to create a new symbolism.

Like its namesake, “World Music”, World Painting is trying to mix together elements from our collective artistic heritage to create a new symbolic imagery.
