2 Richard Mirando, aka SEEN and rightly referred to as the Godfather of Graffiti, is one of the world s most acclaimed talents from the Street Art movement. Following the success of the SEEN Retrospective in 2011, Opera Gallery Paris is proud to present a new and exciting show devoted to the world of superheroes. Strongly influenced by American comic book culture, SEEN s creations are fantastic tributes to some of the most famous costumed crime-fighters who ever donned a cape! Protagonists from Marvel, Hanna-Barbera and Harvey Comics fame such as Batman, the Man of Steel, The Flash, Wonder Woman and the Silver Surfer, accompanied SEEN throughout his childhood. Usually depicted in action, they are easy to identify thanks to their costumes, pictograms and emblematic attributes. With some of these pieces, SEEN specifically concentrated on the hero s physical expression, thus not only revealing all the power behind the expressions and emotions, but also allowing the spectator to discover new facets and subtleties of their favourite vigilantes. This show presents a selection of the artist s latest works never before exhibited. Immerse yourselves in the amazing universe of this remarkable artist whose imagination lures us into an extraordinary world of the good, the bad and the superhero. 2 3
