Yann Leto

Galería Karen Huber presents La posibilidad del mundo by artist Yann Leto.

Yann Leto (1979, Bordeaux, FR) is a French artist based in Spain since 2007. His primary medium is painting, although he also explores installation, sculpture and performance. His work, dense and detailed, is distinguished by a critical approach to socio-political issues, functioning as a collage in which typographic elements coexist alongside classical and modern references. This year we presented his work during the ARCOMadrid art fair as well as during the group exhibition Sobre cómo poner el cuerpo, inaugurated as part of Art Week 2024.

In La posibilidad del mundo, his first solo show at the gallery, Leto explores the indifference and passivity of his characters in the face of a world in decline. From the position of the observer, rather than that of the critic, his work presents scenarios of stoic nonchalance that invite us to reflect on our own attitude in the face of chaos.
