Ernest Pignon-Ernest, urban pioneer

Ernest Pignon-Ernest has been a precursor since the 1960s of what we now call “street art”. He continues to walk the world to stick his images on it. He is a reference for many, as his drawings tell with strength and poetry our history, our great myths, our time.
From the studio to the streets of Naples and Port au Prince, this film accompanies Ernest Pignon-Ernest as close as possible to his latest creations and looks back on the committed career of a major 20th century artist.
