Biography

Paris-based multimedia artist and frequent traveler Marc Lathuillière misuses photography to explore the representation of contemporary societies, both in their roots and their mutations. Political and anthropological, his work aims at deconstructing cultural boundaries and the stereotypes they create. Often influenced by literature, his approach also involves art curation and writing. In 2012, Ithaca, a program of four solo exhibitions in La Rochelle, was conceived in reference to Homer and James Joyce. In 2014, Musée national, his 10 years series on France, was published with a foreword by Michel Houellebecq, while he curated the writer’s first solo show in Paris Month of Photography. He is currently working on an exhibition with anthropologist Marc Augé in Marseille. Marc Lathuillière will devote her time as writer in residence to his project Territorisme.
