Belluwood

Raja Armugam, Aasivel Kumaran and Ashvin Rajagopalan are indian artists who work for the largest film industry in the world : Bollywood. Rene Walker has invited them to Fribourg before the beginning of the festival so they can create, in town, before your eyes, the only «poster» of the BBI 2004, a 125m2 freestanding mural. «I love this kind of work. It's a poster, but it's unique. It's advertising, but hand painted. It's a request, but they are artists. It's a promo, but it's not commercial. It's art, but it's in the street. In this world of digital reproductions, it weighs a ton, but not in kilobytes. It's oil, but it won't last forever. It's here, but it's the same as it would be there. It's beautiful and it will all disappear. It is utopia in a world saturated by images.» Rene Walker
