Box set documenting six of Jean-Luc Moul�ne's most well-known photographic series.
This special edition box set contains four volumes documenting six of Jean-Luc Loul�ne's most well-known photographic series. His practice cuts diagonally across the oft-stratified spheres of economics, politics, and culture in order to reveal gaps in assumed knowledge and allow new figures and transparencies to emerge. Unlike a scientist or a mathematician, an artist must produce work that is not merely the outcome of an experiment, but must also render the experiment available to others; Moul�ne sees this as his task. The resulting forms are models for other lines of inquiry. Many of Moul�ne's photographic images are grouped under the series Documents; this special publication is comprised of subseries chronicling the writings on the wall inside a tunnel in Paris , a group of sex workers from Amsterdam , minor statuettes at the Louvre , objects made by French workers while on strike , an invasive plant species in urban environs , and products illegally exported from Palestine . Here, photography functions as a research tool, a form of record keeping. Like Malraux's Mus�e Imaginaire, Documents unites the heterogeneity of the world under the sign of photography. Edition of 700 signed and numbered copies, English/French.
