Paul Yves Poumay is a professional painter and photographer. He considers himself a contemporary primitive artist. Free provocative, skinned alive and yet incredibly optimistic, the work of Paul Yves Poumay has many intentions but it is mainly directed towards others. Qualified as a utopian, he expresses his indignation, linked to the corrosive power of money, by imposing his status as the most expensive contemporary artist in the world. He translates his questions through an offbeat expressionism, moving from very colorful to darker. He is an instinctive autodidact who, through art and the absurd, challenges the world of finance and calls into question the foundations of our organizations. It provokes reactions by denouncing in particular the societal aberrations that we are witnessing.
Paul Yves Poumay is the creator of the sculpture "The return of Don Quixote", estimated at more than two billion euros which will be donated to basic research within the ASBL AWI.
Paul Yves Poumay was born on June 15, 1969 in Verviers, Belgium. He lives and works in Spa (Belgium). He is represented by the gallery by The carlos reid gallery in Atlanta (USA) and Art nou milleni gallery in Barcelona (Spain)
