Falling Birds oil on linen, 1994

Christian Boltanski







“we are all so complicated, and then we die. We are a subject one day, with our vanities, our loves, our worries, and then one day, abruptly, we become nothing but an object, an absolutely disgusting pile of shit. We pass very quickly from one stage to the next. It’s very bizarre. It will happen to all of us, and fairly soon too. We become an object you can handle like a stone, but a stone that was someone.”







boltanski was born in paris to a jewish ukrainian father and a corsican mother. he lives & works in malakoff currently. his artistic work is based off the problems of death, memory & loss, which ties into my current project perfectly. he often seeks to memorialize anonymous people and those who have disappeared.







In his preliminary years, Boltanski’s paintings were concerned primarily with themes of historical significance. However, by the 1970s, Boltanski removed himself from the painting arena and began his quest for remnants of his own past through selected artworks. These artworks led Boltanski to question the substance he had used when creating his own artworks. However, this introspectivism supplied him with the motive for other artworks in which non-truths and the realisation of fundamental truths converged. Boltanski reconstructed his own youth in this method. In doing so, Boltanski used a vast spectrum of media. For example, film, performance, photography and video. It is interesting to note that Boltanski maintained this vision and direction without focusing on the obvious contradiction of his self-understanding as a painter.



Moreover, the combination of varied media is a fundamental part of the spatial dimension which has been the focus of Boltanski’s work since the mid-1980s
