Julien Levy's work is full of ending and remorse, emotions, trauma and chocks, itplays with languages, definitions and words that become meaningless. The indifferent use of every support with no embarrasement is stuning, like a video support, an installation, or graphism.
At only 26, the artist Julien Levy managed to get the public sensibility and the most famous art theoreticians mixted up in the same movement.
He lives between Tokyo and Paris, building his work as u hage manifest. A versatile and conseptual work, created like a poetry, fundamentally free ans disillusioned. A violent and smooth work, serene and disturbing, cynical and sad. For the spectator, the only way out is to renounce the symbolic, literary and violent sides of the work, and focus on its aesthetics ; this going against the surrounding verbiage of art, remain touching.
