The fiction of subject, the subject of fiction.
Around the idea of "portrait": the subject is to become it, the fluctuations of identity, metamorphosis, the dissolution of the personal "me": the in-between of images; slipping of social image, the identity of the artist, fictional images. "We are a plurality who imagine ourselves as a unit" (Nietzche)
The question of representation: images as enactments:interpretation: pure invention. The transverse: the ambiguity or indetermination of identities, but also artistic codes. The invention of a place "at the border": between the language of cinema and the language of video.
Pierre Coulibeuf. Born in Elbeuf. (France). Cineaste and graphic artist. Lives in Paris.
Contemporary creation is material for the cinematic and graphic art work of Pierre Coulibeuf. In a transversal rapport with cinema genres (fiction, experimental...) as well as the modes of moving image presentation (projection 35mm, installation, video , photography), his work invents a place and a language at the boundary of disciplines, criticising established forms, questioning the modes of representing reality. A work outside the norm, outside genres, outside limits.
In 2006, several exhibitions in Germany, notably at the Deichtorhallenhaus der Photographie in Hamburg, the International Pavilion at the 5th International Biennale of Contemporary art in Mercosul, Porto Alegre, Brazil in 2005. the opening exhibition of the Bernado Museum in Lisbon, Portugal in 2007.
