A look back at the career of Tatiana Trouvé, artist and head of the studio at the Beaux-Arts in Paris, driven by the questions raised by the destruction of the planet, but also by an understanding of the living world renewed by science.
Born in Cosenza, Italy, Tatiana Trouvé spent her childhood in Africa, then studied art at the Villa Arson in Nice (1985-1989) and the Ateliers 63 in Haarlem (1990-1992). She had her first solo exhibition in 1991. She won the Marcel Duchamp Prize in 2007 and the Centre Pompidou is devoting a major solo exhibition to her in 2022. She has been head of studio at the Beaux-Arts de Paris since 2019.
For art critic Bernard Marcadé, who forewords this book, Tatiana Trouvé's work "navigates between sculpture, drawing and installation. Yet most of her work can be understood as linked to fiction and writing".
The writings and interviews transcribed in this book, accompanied by a wealth of photographic documentation, bear witness to the artist's journey from the creation of her Bureau d'Activités Implicites to her more recent works, inhabited by the questions posed by the destruction of the planet by humans, but also by an understanding of living things renewed by science.
