Sorry for the imperfect English...

 

As a French artist in visual art with an unusual background in economics (Master degree Immaterial Economy), and a passion for urban development, i organise my art practices in experimental laboratories at the cross roads of this territories.

See http://goodwill.is.not.free.fr for a general overview of my labs.

 

This makes me a non-conventional artist-researcher, and my Laboratoire d'Ingénierie d'Idées (idea engineering lab - www.liid.fr), today the most active of my labs, is regularly collaborating with academic or non academic research laboratories in France and abroad (Denmark, Sweden, Finland, US, China, Iran, etc.).

 

I also take the initiative of independant artistic research projects such as Paris Galaxies that i will show in the Research Catalogue (and maybe JAR), or the Polygon (www.openpolygon.org), launched in 2010 at Apex Art in NY in "The Incidental Person (after John Latham)" group show curated by Anthony Hudek, but today on hold.

 

"PARIS GALAXIES, A VISION FOR THE GREATER PARIS" IS A NON-CONVENTIONAL CREATIVE AND PROSPECTIVE RESEARCH PROJECT, AIMING AT DESIGNING FUTURE REPRESENTATIONS OF THE PARISIAN EXPANDED METROPOLIS.

The project is now hosted by the Institut ACTE (Art, Creation, Theory, Esthetics) at Sorbonne University, with the partnership of the Paris College of Art, and received the Paris 2030 research grant from the City of Paris for 2013-14.
