Born 09/05/1980 in France, Nadib Bandi was adept at drawing since childhood and from a family passionate about the arts. Bandi's graffiti work began in the middle of the 90s (1996) during the golden age of Hip Hop in France and for fifteen years the European graffiti movement provided a fertile breeding ground for his generation. He went to live in Paris and through meetings found himself quickly caught in the gears of being a "Graff Vandal" and from that moment aerosol art became for him more than a means of expression but a way of life. In 1999 back in Haute- Savoie, Geneva he met with "Choll" and that led to a new approach in more experimental painting. It drew pictorial influences from older paintings and specifically from abstract painting of the 20th century (Georges Matthew Soulages, Pollock). Lettering started to become more of an abstract architectural composition evoking urbanity transfigured by an anachronistic railway universe. It was in Marseilles along the Mediteranean that bandi continued his pictorial experimentations, 5 years continued to forge his style through meetings and travel between Marseille, Geneva and Barcelona. It was at this time that his activity peaked and it was like bulimia graffiti that transformed color and everything that crossed his path. In the early 2000s he went to Geneva as part of an exhibition at the UN and made his first paintings in an abstract style radically different from what he usually painted on the wall, this experience definitely changed his approach to aerosol art. He discovered there are new fields of creation and innovations that emerged through other visual forms. All of these influences ultimately ended up creating a style based on the balance between hyper-structured forms contrasted by the spontaneity of the aerosol art from the trainyards. It is in this contrast that is "Bandi"s style was born and continues to grow through experimentation. So from 2005 Bandi has been travelling and exporting his painting abroad, from Mexico to the USA via Canada to India, the Middle East and Africa. This has fuelled a whole new energy and a new vision of the world that is permanently changing his creative approach to export authentic ghetto aerosol art (graffiti without compromise) while trying to reach people who are more sensitive to painting and art in a broader sense.
