Julian Charrière

Julian Charrière (born 1987, Morges, Switzerland)[1] is a Swiss artist currently living and working in Berlin, Germany. He attended the École cantonale d'art du Valais and the Berlin University of the Arts. He collaborated with Julius von Bismarck for the site specific performance “Some pigeons are more equal than others” at the 2012 Venice Architecture Bienniale and this project has also been adapted for performances/instillations in Copenhagen and Berlin.[2][3] The aforementioned work incorporates a pigeon trapping device designed by Charrière and Bismarck. This equipment is positioned in a public place to capture and subsequently airbrush pigeons as they chart their path within the vicinity.

From September until November 2013, Charrière had a solo outdoor exhibition of his work at the Palais de Tokyo in Paris, called "Somehow they never stop doing what they always did".[4]

Charrière was the recipient of the 2014 Prix culturel Manor Vaud which featured a major solo exhibition of his work at the Cantonal Museum of Fine Arts in Lausanne.[5]

In September 2016 Charierre had a two man exhibition with Peter Liversidge at the Sean Kelly Gallery in New York City , his effort entitled "Freeze, Memory" is his first time showing with the gallery.[6][7]

Charrière works often with scholars and writers such as Timothy Morton,[8] Paul Feigelfeld,[9] Nadim Samman [10] and David Khalat [11] among others.
