Austin artist to paint mural in France ahead of Summer Olympics.

AUSTIN (KXAN) — Artist Fabian Rey is adding a splash of color to Austin’s sister city in France ahead of the 2024 Summer Olympics.

Austin-based muralist Fabian Rey is heading to Angers, France as part of the Echappée d’Art project, an international showcase. He’ll be painting a mural in the French city from Sept. 25 through Oct. 11 in an effort “to spruce up the city in time for the Summer Olympics,” he told KXAN.
The City of Angers’ Echappée d’Art program offers artists from around the world the opportunity to come “breathe art into the streets.”

Some of Rey’s previous work includes the 2023 Tifo for Austin FC’s first home game of the season at Q2 Stadium, the new Austin PBS building and the wrap around CapMetro’s first electric bus.

Echappées d’Art, meaning "Art is in the Street," is an annual street art initiative by the City of Angers. It invites five artists from all around the world to contribute to the city's vibrant artistic landscape with all-inclusive mural creations. The project underscores Angers' commitment to cultural exchange and the universality of art.

I am truly honored for being chosen to go represent Austin in Angers, France.

Je t'aime Austin!

This is what the french newspaper wrote:
Celebrating the Franco-American friendship with its twin city Austin, Angers will welcome the muralist Fabian Rey for the creation of a fresco in a unique and colorful style. Also a photographer, artistic director and art teacher, the multifaceted artist puts his creativity at the service of diversity, placing openness to the world and to others at the heart of his work.
