A monograph of Philippe Parreno’s collaborative practice

This monograph surveys Philippe Parreno’s work from the late 1980s through the book’s 2009 publication. Its scope spans film, performance, dialogue, collaboration and exhibition-making, including *Zidane, a 21st Century Portrait* (made with Douglas Gordon) and *Il Tempo del Postino* (with Hans Ulrich Obrist). The description frames Parreno’s practice around questioning the idea of an artwork as a discrete, ownable object. Critical and fictional texts accompany the inventory, giving the volume more than a catalogue of projects. Designed by M/M, the hardcover presents a broad record of an artist working across forms and in collaboration with others.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in contemporary art monographs and artist-led practices.
  • Those exploring collaborative work across film, performance and exhibitions.
  • Readers seeking an overview of Philippe Parreno’s work from the late 1980s onward.

Book overview

Philippe Parreno (born 1964) undermines the notion of the discrete, ownable, copyrighted artwork through collaborations with artists such as Douglas Gordon and Pierre Huyghe, performances, dialogue and the cultivation of exhibitions as real-time encounters. This superbly produced monograph, designed by M/M, offers the first substantial inventory of Parreno's work since the late 1980s, covering his multifarious production from film (such as the famous Zidane, a 21st Century Portrait, made with Douglas Gordon, 2006) to spectacle (Il Tempo del Postino, with Hans Ulrich Obrist, 2007). It also includes critical and fictional texts by Maria Lind, Charles Ars
