Isabelle Cornaro : Fascination and Disgust of Matter, Paperback / softback Book

Isabelle Cornaro : Fascination and Disgust of Matter Paperback / softback

Edited by Julie Enckell Julliard, Federica Martini, Sarah Burkhalter

Part of the On Words series

Paperback / softback

Description

Isabelle Cornaro, based in Paris and Geneva, holds degrees in art history and visual arts.

She has a strong interest in experimental cinema and devotes herself to the narrative, symbolic, and economic origins of things.

In her work she assumes an anthropologist-type manner to investigate people's seemingly fixated attachment to emotionally charged, even fetishised objects, creating large stage installations and short movies. This book is part of the new On Words series that presents conversations with contemporary women artists.

Through them, readers come to understand the sources from which they draw inspiration, the themes in their work, and their view of the world.

Edited by Julie Enckell, Federica Martini, and Sarah Burkhalter and bringing together a wide range of viewpoints, the On Words series adds a new narrative to polyphonic art history as told by those who actively shape it.

Text in English and French.
