This book, the first critical study of Jean-Luc Moulène’s work, brings together leading scholars to examine the artist’s diverse aesthetic strategies and interests in the relationships between social and political arenas and systems and orders, including geometry, mathematics, social sciences, and human behavior. Featured essays also examine Moulène’s theoretical and playful inquiries into the plasticity of materials and the ways we see and understand both still and moving images.
