Raysse, Martial (1936– ). French painter and experimental artist. He was born at GolfeJuan, near Nice, and has worked mainly in Paris. He has experimented with various media (including neon lighting), but is best known for his assemblages of commonplace objects in the spirit of Pop art. Often these works have a neat, display-rack character: ‘I wanted my works to possess the serene self-evidence of mass-produced refrigerators.’ Raysse has also made a name as a theatrical designer.
