Christian Marclay
Edited with text by Jean-Pierre Criqui. Foreword by Laurent Le Bon, Xavier Rey. Interview with Christian Marclay. Text by Nathalie Quintane, Marcella Lista, Catherine de Smet, Polly Barton, Michel Gauthier, Dennis Cooper, Wayne Koestenbaum, Clément Chéroux, David Toop. Illustrated chronology by Annalisa Rimmaudo.
Blending Fluxus, Pop and performance art, Marclay has tested and reinvented the relationship between art and sound over the past four decades
Published on the occasion of Christian Marclay’s major survey at the Centre Pompidou, Paris, this volume explores in depth his popular and influential multimedia art. From his early performances in the 1970s to his iconic Guitar Drag (2000) and large-scale video installations such as All Together (2018), Marclay has ranged freely across mediums—photography, modified musical instruments, videos, prints and paintings, objects and graphic scores—exploring auditory existence through strategies of sampling, shuffling and montage.
Designed by Zak Group and extensively illustrated, the publication gathers together new essays by writers Polly Barton and Nathalie Quintane, art historians Michel Gauthier and Marcella Lista, and design specialist Catherine de Smet. It also features a conversation with Marclay by the exhibition’s curator, Jean-Pierre Criqui, an anthology of texts from an international array of writers and art historians—Clément Chéroux, Dennis Cooper, Jean-Pierre Criqui, Wayne Koestenbaum and David Toop—and a comprehensive chronology by Annalisa Rimmaudo.
London- and New York–based visual artist and composer Christian Marclay (born 1955) was born in California, raised in Geneva, Switzerland, and studied sculpture at the Massachusetts College of Art in Boston.
