Known as one of the most important figures, but also the time ‘enfant terrible’, of the neo-expressionism movement of the eighties; Julian Schnabel is considered as a real star of the contemporary art scene. Photography has always been present in his works particularly in his paintings in which he often uses old pictures recovered by painting, as he continues to do in his Polaroïds. Julian Schnabel is a multidisciplinary artist, a genius touche-à-tout, art is an integral part of his person and he also declares “ The painting is like the breath for me. It’s what I do all along. Every day, I do art, even in the painting, the writing or making movies.”
