Julien Grossmann

Across my practice, I explore different facets of globalization, addressing certain paradoxes that come along with the entanglement of cultural, technological and economic movements. I look at areas of overlap or frictions between cultural and corporate productions, or where particular cultural dynamics confront normative structures and systems. With a keen interest in music and the use of sound within a range of historical and contemporary contexts where it contributed to shaping social relations, my work consists primarily of sound installations, but encompasses a diversity of medias such as prints, video, audio works and publications, trying to regenerate perspectives and relationships.
