Post lot text

Après avoir étudié à l’École Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs, l’artiste française Camille Henrot installe son atelier entre Berlin et New York. Elle voyage entre les mediums pour revisiter les différentes facettes de l’individu, dans sa particularité au sein d’un groupe social. La série de sculptures Espèces menacées, dont Ford Puma fait partie, exprime sa fascination pour la réinvention de l’histoire, le glissement des signes, la création de mythes. Les pièces de moteur de voitures grâce auxquelles les sculptures sont réalisées cèdent donc à des silhouettes d’inspiration africaine qui défient les codes du réel.
Le travail de Camille Henrot a fait l’objet de plusieurs expositions individuelles et biennales et s’est vu décerner de nombreux prix dont une nomination au prix Marcel Duchamp en 2010, le lion d’argent de la Biennale de Venise en 2013, le Nam June Paik International Media Art Award en 2014 et le prix Edward Munch en 2015. Son œuvre a notamment été exposée au Musée du Louvre, au Jeu de Paume, au Centre Pompidou, au Palais de Tokyo, à la Fondation Cartier, au Musée d’Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris, à l’espace culturel Louis Vuitton ; et dans de nombreux musées à l’étranger, dont le MoMA (New York).

After studying at the École Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs, French artist Camille Henrot set up her studio between Berlin and New York. She travelled between several mediums to revisit the different facets of the individual, in his or her particularity within a social group. The series of sculptures Endangered Species, of which Ford Puma is a part, expresses her fascination with the reinvention of history, the shifting of signs, the creation of myths. The car engine parts with which the sculptures are made thus give way to African-inspired silhouettes that defy the codes of reality.
Camille Henrot's work has been the subject of several solo and biennial exhibitions and has been awarded numerous prizes, including a nomination for the Marcel Duchamp Prize in 2010, the Silver Lion at the Venice Biennale in 2013, the Nam June Paik International Media Art Award in 2014 and the Edward Munch Prize in 2015. Her work has been exhibited at the Musée du Louvre, the Jeu de Paume, the Centre Pompidou, the Palais de Tokyo, the Fondation Cartier, the Musée d'Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris, the Espace Culturel Louis Vuitton, and in numerous museums abroad, including the MoMA (New York).
