Maxime Berthou.

Catalan artist born in 1981. He graduated from the Ecole Supérieure d'Art in Aix-en-Provence before joining the post-graduate course at the Fresnoy Studio National des Arts Contemporains in Tourcoing and then taking a pre-doctoral training at the Arts Décoratifs in Paris.

His artistic practice consists mainly of making film essays based on performative gestures. However, he sometimes explores other forms of narrative to retranscribe his performances: storytelling, documentary theatre, literary essays, photography... Whatever the form chosen, the intention remains the same: to share complex or unspeakable artistic issues through simple and accessible stories. His work is part of a practice-based research context overlaying an artistic framework with a scientific one.

Notably laureate of the Andy Warhol foundation and the Villa Albertine in 2021, his works have been presented in numerous solo and group exhibitions, cinemas and theatres worldwide such as Centre Pompidou Paris,Telic Gallery Los Angeles , New Orleans Jazz Museum, Matucana 100 Santiago de Chile, MSUM Ljubljana, Wrocław biennale.
