Raw Materials
Fabrice Hyber (born Luçon, France 1961) is one of the most inventive and influential artists of his generation. Hyber’s continually evolving work includes painting, drawing and installation and is developed from a principle of echoes, in which each work is made in response to another. Since the 1980s Hyber has created hybrid works made from a vast array of materials and based upon a network of unexpected associations. In his exhibitions, visitors are invited to experience the work by interacting with it directly and generating new ways of behaving. Raw Materials is the artist’s first large-scale solo exhibition in the UK and will bring together more than fifty works spanning Hyber’s prolific career.
Fabrice Hyber: Raw Materials was originated by Palais de Tokyo, Paris.
