Pierre Joseph

Born in 1965 in Caen, France
Considered by Pierre Huyghe to be an “artist’s artist”, Pierre Joseph has produced an expansive body of work since the late 1980s, inspired by contemporary culture, from David Lynch to the Playstation or Bret Easton Ellis. After a revelatory stay in Japan in 1997, his work became conceptual, mixing space and time, the real and the virtual. Driven by the desire to trace his own path, Pierre Joseph conceives the work of art as a “relational object” that transforms the exhibition into a space for exchange and interaction between the artist, the work, and the audience.
Pierre Joseph was born in 1965 in Caen. He graduated from the École des beaux-arts industriels in Grenoble and then became a resident at the Villa Arson (Nice) before teaching in Montpellier. Represented by the Air de Paris gallery, he lives and works in Paris.
