Philippe Parreno

Philippe Parreno is a French artist who rose to prominence in the 1990s, earning critical acclaim for his work that spans a diversity of media, including film, sculpture, drawing, and text. Parreno radically redefined the exhibition experience by taking it as a medium, placing its construction at the heart of his process. Exploring the possibilities of the exhibition as a coherent “object” rather than as a collection of individual works, it becomes a veritable open space, a format that differs on each occasion, and a frame for things to appear and disappear. He has exhibited at numerous institutions internationally including Tate Modern (London), The Serpentine Gallery (London), Palais de Tokyo (Paris), Museo Prado (Madrid) and MoMA (New York).
