fru (Beat Frutiger), born in 1952 in Bern, lives in Kaiseraugst near Basel (CH) and worked as a art teacher from 1981 until his retirement in 2013. He publishes artworks in the form of photography, body painting photography, books and performance videos under the pseudonym . Influenced by performances of the 1970s, Zen art and training as a make-up artist, fru has been combining body painting, performance, photography and Zen art in a unique way. His art as bodypainting performance photographs is a play between the photographic image that represents reality and the painting or sculpture that embodies an idea or an ideal. Since his training in 1981, his creativity has been concerned with the deconstruction of fine art, body art and photography for a reconfiguration of the elements into a result in which the image is, as in Zen teachings, "the finger pointing at the moon". Many of his works are perfect for art lovers and collectors who are looking for the unusual and provocative. Please contact curator@saatchiart.com for more details on the artistic process from the idea for the bodypainting, through performance, photography and editing in Photoshop to the image that looks like a painting.
