MAMADOU CISSÉ

Born in 1960 in Senegal, lives and works in Fresnes, France.

Self-taught, Mamadou Cissé has always practiced drawing.

Through his strokes, urban groups are born. Seen from the sky, they are articulated around traffic axes in a clever play of perspectives. The views of this artist-town planner rise to the heights, towards these spaces man has gradually conquered. His drawings, executed with colored pens and markers, become manifestos of dream cities.

Exhibited at the 2009 Contemporary Drawing Fair at the Carreau du Temple as well as in many cities such as Berlin, Zurich, Dakar, Montpellier, Paris.
