Neïl Beloufa

Kamel Mennour is pleased to present an exhibition by the Franco-Algerian artist, Neïl Beloufa. Beloufa is exhibiting a serious of luminous, brightly coloured flowers and cars in resin. Though they look like something out of an illustrated book, there are surprises to be found in the depths of the resin; hidden detritus from Beloufa's studio including old six packs, pizza boxes, and wrapping materials. Beloufa's work mixes contemporary issues and multimedia technology, inviting the viewer to go beyond their initial reading of the piece, to observe the work in all its dimensions. Neïl Beloufa (born in 1985 in Paris, France) is a French-Algerian artist who lives and works in Paris. He was a student at École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts; École Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs in Paris; California Institute of the Arts in Valencia (USA); Cooper Union, New York and Fresnoy and National Contemporary Arts Studio, Tourcoing (France). He has had solo exhibitions internationally, notably at K11 in Shanghai (2016); MoMA in New York (2016); Schinkel Pavilion in Berlin (2015); Institute of Contemporary Arts in London (2014); the Hammer Museum in Los Angeles (2013) at the Palais de Tokyo in Paris (2012 and 2018) as well as the Schirn Kunsthalle in Frankfurt (2018). Neïl Beloufa also took part in the Biennale of Contemporary Art in Shanghai (2014), the 55th International Contemporary Art Exhibition of the Venice Biennale (2013) and the Biennial of Contemporary Art in Lyon (2013).
