Michel Houellebecq photographer, his exhibition in New York

He is not only a successful writer Michel Houellebecq: he has also been a filmmaker, actor, singer and photographer. A 360-degree career. After being invited by Christian Jankowski to take part in Manifesta 11 and have had a solo show at the Palais de Tokyo curated by Jean de Loisy, he now prepares for his first exhibition in the United States.


 

Anguish, paranoia, restlessness are the three elements on which the exhibition French Bashing at the Venus gallery in Manhattan revolves, as told by Artribune . The French writer brings to New York a series of works already exhibited in Paris and some unpublished works. Poet, essayist, writer, director, now also an artist, Houellebecq is one of the most controversial intellectuals of our time. Famous throughout the world for his literary works, the French writer has often been the center of controversy for his novels considered by a part of cryptic criticism, pornographic and full of racial hatred.
