Miquel Barceló, Océanographe (FR)

Author: Miquel Barceló

Publisher: JBE Books

French Version - On the occasion of the Miquel Barceló exhibition, Oceanographer, the NMNM and JBE Books co-publish a retrospective and thematic book embodying the artist's work over the past 40 years.

Miquel Barceló's work is inseparable from the intimate connection he has maintained with the sea since his childhood and continues to study and explore every day. This book offers an immersion into the prolific production of an artist passionate about fishing, swimming, and diving, for whom the aquatic world remains the primordial environment, omnipresent in his work from his earliest canvases to his most recent creations. Between abysses and shores, ocean floors merge with the water's surface, underwater caves transform into waves, and the forms and fauna of the depths juxtapose fossiliferous compositions or seafood feasts.

Enriched with unpublished contributions from Marie Darrieussecq and Chantal Thomas, an interview with the artist by Patrick Mauriès, and a critical apparatus by Björn Dahlström, Guillaume de Sardes, and Stéphane Vacquier, 'Miquel Barceló, Oceanographer' invites us to discover fifty years of plastic experiences by this essential contemporary creator.
