Exploration of Colour
Fred Fabre began his varied and colourful career as a drawer and animator before turning to video journalism, working in many of the world’s conflicts. He moved to London in 1997 and has worked on various projects as a BAFTA-winning director of photography before moving on to painting full time after doing an MA in Fine Art at Chelsea College of Art in 2007. Recently fabre won the Refresh Art Award (Prize of Our Times).
Iconic symbols
Or tales and narratives are happily interwined throughout the various series of Fabre’s rendering of life. The paintings are a continual exploration of colour and form as a means to explore the essence, energy of the various concepts Fabre is interested in.
