Jean-Michel Othoniel
Auteur(s) : Gay Gassmann, Catherine Grenier, Robert Storr
Jean-Michel Othoniel (1964-) creates sculptures that explore themes of fragility, transformation and ephemerality. Using the repetition of modular elements such as bricks or beads, his work deploys various strategies that allude to loss and despair - cracks in the perfect surfaces of his objects, negative spaces and, in his early career, ephemeral materials such as sulphur.
This monograph is the most comprehensive study to date of the French sculptor's work. It includes intimate pieces created for galleries as well as monumental public commissions created all over the world.
