User:Gxlip/Pierre Jean Giloux

Pierre Jean Giloux, born in 1965, is a French artist.

In 2015, he was awarded the Villa Kujoyama in Kyoto where he directed Stations, the fourth and final part of his tetralogy Invisible Cities. In 2016, he won the Grand Prize "Art Vidéo” at the Festival Côté court de Pantin.

Education
Pierre Jean Giloux graduated with a DNSEP with honors from the Ecole supérieure des Beaux-Arts de Lyon in 1990. In 1988/89, he studied at the Cheltenham School of Fine Arts in the United Kingdom. He obtained a master's degree at the Ecole supérieure des Beaux-Arts de Marseille in 1991.

Works
Pierre-Jean Giloux develops a work that is at the convergence of several practices: drawing, still and moving images, space and volume. These photographic installations are composed of suites of images that he describes as enlarged storyboards. They are generally exhibited in urban sites, outdoors. They question the status of the image within the city itself.

His films are made using digital techniques. He develops visual and sound compositions made of collages and montages, sometimes including animated sequences in 2D and 3D. The graphic interventions on the films allow him to modify the perception of reality and to create "reconstructed worlds". Thanks to the association and hybridization of images, his videos make the virtual and the real cohabit in order to establish a dialogue and to question them, in particular when they are shown in the form of immersive installations where the spectator is invited to wander inside multi-screen devices. The boundaries between virtual and real images are blurred, creating a "space between" in which the viewer invents his own narrative.

Pierre-Jean Giloux bases his work on iconographic and theoretical research that he associates with visual and sound recordings. These hybridizations shape a personal universe elaborated in the form of drawings and photos. These universes are then retranscribed within the films that he makes.

He carries out committed projects of a prospective nature on the notion of landscapes in the city and proposes to confront urban situations with landscape projects. His work Invisible Cities (2015/2017) forms a video tetralogy consisting of Metabolism, Japan Principle, Shrinking Cities and Stations draws portraits of several Japanese cities. It superimposes the utopian projects of the Japanese metabolists on the current urban landscapes. These prospective fictions have as a starting point the Japanese urban and social realities filmed and photographed and then extended by synthetic images, which is defined as 'augmented reality'. His works are regularly shown in museums and contemporary art centers as well as in video and digital arts festivals. He is represented by Solang Production. He collaborates for many of his projects with the French composer Lionel Marchetti.
