Carte blanche for Jonas Delaborde on the work of Pascal Doury
In the context of the “Crumbling the Antiseptic Beauty” exhibition, an encounter on Pascal Doury's work by artist, publisher and researcher Jonas Delaborde !
Pascal Doury appears, through a photographic series documenting his apartment, in “Crumbling the Antiseptic Beauty”, the exhibition at the Pernod Ricard Foundation curated by David Douard. Doury's presence, rare in a space dedicated to contemporary art, offers the opportunity to talk about a singular artistic journey. It came to an abrupt end with his death in 2001 at the age of 45. He left behind a complex and prolific body of work, crossing distinct fields: illustration, graphic design, contemporary poetry, collage and painting. They are linked in a production that unfolds essentially through publishing: graphzine, artist's book, poetry review.
Jonas Delaborde, artist, publisher and researcher, is the author of Elles sont de sortie, choquer le monde à mort (They're out, shocking the world to death) (to be published), about the work of Pascal Doury, alone or in association with artist Bruno Richard.
