Pauline Julier - (On Words) by Julie Enckell & Federica Martini & Sarah Burkhalter (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

An interview with artist and filmmaker Pauline Julier that explores the motivation behind her distinctive work.

Artist and filmmaker Pauline Julier works with the moving image as a means of questioning. With her dual education in political science and photography, she has developed a unique approach that leads to a visual dialogue between scientific narratives and ways of representing collective knowledge. In this interview, Julier reflects on a series of her cinematic works and installations and explores the transdisciplinary methods and contexts of visual engagement that characterize her artistic practice.

On Words is a collection of interviews with contemporary women artists. In conversation with Julie Enckell Julliard, Federica Martini, and Sarah Burkhalter, they speak about the sources from which they draw inspiration, themes in their work, and their view of the world. The series brings together a wide range of viewpoints and adds a new narrative to polyphonic art history as told by those who actively shape it.
