Jean-Luc Moulène

Sinopse

"Since the late 1980s, artist Jean-Luc Moulène (b. 1955) has developed a body of work informed by a critical investigation of authorship, as well as issues of autonomy, immanence, and anarchic politics. Although he is best known for his enigmatic, large-format photographs, Moulène has maintained a parallel exploration of materials and objects--manufactured and found, industrial and organic--that he has collectively titled Opus. This book, the first critical study of Moulène's work, brings together leading scholars to examine the artist's diverse aesthetic strategies and interests in the overlaps of social and political arenas, systems and orders--geometry, mathematics, social sciences, and human behavior--as well as his inquiry into the plasticity of materials and the registers of still and moving images"--
