One common trait among the great artists of the world is their constant pursuit of new perspectives. The French artist Yaniv Edery (born in 1977) also embarked on a quest for innovative forms of artistic expression. After spending time in New York and Tel Aviv, he eventually developed his globally unique printing technique, which allows him to infuse his works with exceptional three-dimensionality and remarkable detail. Through the interplay of elevated textures and dynamically perspective-driven motifs, Edery creates a fascinating sense of depth that almost seems to dissolve the boundary between the artwork and the viewer.

To achieve this effect, the artist—who lives and works in Nice—uses not only acrylic paint but also resin, glitter, and Swarovski crystals. His works are created on brushed aluminum panels, which add an additional layer of light reflections. In an elaborate handcrafting process, elements such as stones and glitter are meticulously applied to the surface. This results in an artwork that offers a completely new and ever-changing perspective from every angle, bringing it to life in the truest sense of the word—an achievement all the more remarkable considering that Edery developed this technique entirely as a self-taught artist.

Yaniv has many collectors around the world and has created artworks for prominent figures such as Charles Leclerc, Rafael Nadal, the Prince of Monaco, and the King of Qatar.

The Société des Bains de Mer de Monaco honored the artist’s extraordinary talent with a permanent exhibition of his works at the renowned Monte-Carlo Bay Hotel. Other artists are also captivated by the unique impact of Edery’s paintings, leading to various collaborations with creatives such as Jonas Leriche, Monika Nowak, Mr. Garcin, Tchoba, and Tom Art (alias Thierry de Massia).

Edery’s latest project is more than just a tribute to the famous New York Pop Art artist James Rizzi—it is a series of creative reinventions based on Rizzi’s iconic works, allowing James’ art to quite literally appear in a new light.
