Raphaël-Bachir Osman
Work and live
Mulhouse, Paris
Graduated from the Haute École des Arts du Rhin with honours (2017), Raphaël- Bachir Osman develops a plural practice ranging from painting to installation. Alone or in collaboration, he questions with joyful derision each stage of the life of the works and the imperious notion of originality, from the creation to the assembly and the exhibition. By mixing registers and tones as much as materials and effects, Raphaël-Bachir Osman skilfully plays with a singular humour on the borders of the absurd, bad taste or perhaps the keys to a mystical symbolism whose codes would remain to be discovered. In 2019, his work was shown at the Kunstraum Riehen in Basel, at the Biennale Jeune Création Mulhouse 019 and for the Prix de Novembre in Vitry. In 2020, he was nominated for the Emerige Revelations grant, and was awarded the research and creation grant from the Ateliers Médicis’ Création en Cours programme. In 2023, he was part of the 72nd Jeune Création exhibition at the Fiminco Foundation and the Art Press Magazine Biennial (2022), at the Musée Fabre and the M.O.C.O in Montpellier. He then won the Atelier Mondial’s grant (Basel) for a six month’s residency of creation at Residency Unlimited in Brooklyn. In 2024, he presents his first solo show with the DS Galerie, “Body of Work” and he will be a resident of the Weiss Foundation during this spring.
