Artist David Mesguich‘s interest in art and public space has been considerably influenced by his days as a graffiti artist. Though he now typically works in sculpture and water color, his artistic concerns haven’t changed. His interest in the city and our relationship with it can be seen in nearly all of his work. Mesguich is especially known for creating large polygonal and sparsely colored sculptures. These sculptures often become part of a public installation. The sculptures are brought to various public spaces becoming impromptu monuments. Though a different sort of street art, Mesguich’s work still explores art, the city, and how both can be experienced together.
