Robert Combas is a French contemporary artist known for his colorful, bold, and often provocative works of art. He was born on May 25, 1957, in Lyon, . Combas is associated with the "Figuration Libre" movement, which emerged in during the 1980s as a reaction against the formalism and conceptual art of the time.

Figuration Libre, which translates to "Free Figuration," is characterized by its rejection of artistic constraints, embracing a more spontaneous and expressive style. Combas, along with other artists like Hervé Di Rosa, François Boisrond, and Rémi Blanchard, played a pivotal role in this movement. Their work was marked by a return to figurative art, vivid colors, and a rejection of the minimalist and abstract trends that had dominated the art world.

As the leading figure of this artistic movement in Europe, he is recognized as one of the foremost contemporary French artists since the 1980s. He holds the unique distinction of being the sole French artist consistently featured in the annual Artprice ranking of the top 500 contemporary artists worldwide, earning him one of the highest global ratings.

Combas' paintings often feature a mix of bold, cartoon-like characters and symbols, graffiti elements, and pop culture references. His work is known for its exuberance, humor, and a raw, almost childlike quality. These characteristics make his art accessible and relatable to a wide audience. He has been described as a neo-expressionist and a post-punk artist, and his work reflects his ion for music, comics, and street culture.

Over the years, Robert Combas has gained international recognition, and his art has been exhibited in galleries and museums around the world. His work has also been featured in various publications and retrospectives. Combas continues to be a prominent figure in the contemporary art scene, known for his energetic and unapologetic approach to painting and creativity.
