Exhibition: When art meets the automobile at Hilario'Art
At Hilario'Art, art and automobiles collide in a unique exhibition. Discover the work of young French artist Hilario, a graduate of contemporary art and graphic design schools, who is reinventing the codes of automotive art.
Automotive art, a passion born from a family heritage
From a young age, Hilario has always been fascinated by automobiles. Coming from a family of enthusiasts, he grew up surrounded by classic cars and body parts. This passion naturally blended with his interest in art and graphic design, pushing him to explore new creative avenues.
"I've always been captivated by the beauty of cars' lines and shapes. They harbor a true artistic dimension that deserves to be showcased," explains Hilario. This is how his work took shape, brilliantly blending the world of automobiles and contemporary art.
Unique and bold works
Hilario's Art presents an eclectic exhibition featuring original and bold pieces. Highlights include hybrid sculptures combining bodywork elements with unexpected materials such as glass, wood, and metal.
"I like to play with contrasts and surprising combinations. My creations aim to shake up the codes and offer a fresh perspective on the automobile," says the artist.
His paintings, meanwhile, explore the themes of speed, movement, and power through dynamic and colorful compositions. Hilario enjoys deconstructing traditional forms and reinventing them in a resolutely contemporary style.
An exhibition event at the Coligny Car Museum
This landmark exhibition is being held in the prestigious setting of the Coligny Car Museum. A true temple of classic cars, this venue offers a prime setting to showcase Hilario's work.
"We are delighted to host this exhibition, which celebrates the alliance between art and the automobile. It is a unique opportunity for our visitors to discover Hilario's talent and to rethink the place of the automobile in the artistic universe," said the museum's director.
An innovative vision of automotive art
Through his work, Hilario blurs the lines between art and the automobile. His creations invite the public to take a fresh look at these two worlds, bringing them into unexpected dialogue.
"My goal is to show that the automobile can be much more than just a means of transportation. It's an object of design, technology, but also artistic inspiration," the artist emphasizes.
Stimulating collaborations
To enrich his approach, Hilario doesn't hesitate to surround himself with other creators from diverse backgrounds. He regularly collaborates with designers, engineers, and artisans to explore new creative avenues.
"I really enjoy working in a team and comparing my ideas with those of other professionals. This allows me to push my own limits and imagine ever more innovative works," he confides.
A committed approach
Beyond the aesthetic dimension, Hilario's work is part of a broader reflection on the impact of the automobile on our society and our environment. His creations invite the public to question the issues related to sustainable mobility.
"I want to raise public awareness of these essential issues, while offering a unique artistic experience. Art can be a powerful vehicle for changing attitudes," concludes Hilario.
