Pierre Bismuth

Bismuth uses the power of language and image to morph rational ideas into absurd situations, and vice versa. Drawing from art history and cultural references - from fashion to cinema - Bismuth uses all art mediums available, from origami and collage to screenwriting and art installations. This volume charts the artists development through an analytical text, a visual gallery of works and an interview by a renowned art critic. A thorough and insightful reference, it provides a portrait of Bismuth’s past and present work, and many of his works are assembled together for the first time.
