Jerome Mesnager has been producing wonderful street art in Paris, France for decades. Mesnager was born in 1961 in the city of Colmar, France. The artist is renown for his “Man in White” figure. For those art lovers it mind remind you to a wooden figure mannequin that you might draw when beginning to work with drawing the figure.
Mesnager is sometimes mistaken for Parisian street artist Nemo. Nemo is famous for making a black silhouette character that usually has a raincoat. Sometimes the two figures are combined, the white and black figure, as in the last picture of the gallery.
Some works are removed quickly, but the artist is so prolific and he has been doing his style of urban art for more than thirty years you are more than likely to see his art many locations in the streets of Paris.
For his artistic education Mesnager attended the Ecole Boulle. This school is a mixture of art such as painting and drawing in addition to teaching interior architecture and design skills. Mesnager went on to teach at this school.
