Christian Boltanski came to prominence in the 1980s with major exhibitions at the Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris in 1984 and the Whitechapel Gallery, London in 1990. This text explores his art, arguing that it hovers between the trauma of the extermination camp depot and the redemption of a memorial shrine.

Christian Boltanski's votive installations, archives and objects, revolving around the fragile polarities of memory and amnesia, identity and anonymity, have made him one of the world's most renowned contemporary artists. And yet, despite the centrality of biography and testimony to his work, Boltanski's own story is little known and has never been fully told. Published on the occasion of the artist's sixty-fifth birthday, The Possible Life of Christian Boltanski, written in the form of a book-length interview (which the artist likens to a "psychoanalysis" or "confession") with the art historian Catherine Grenier, is Boltanski's oral autobiography. In it, he recounts his unusual wartime childhood ("my mother hid my father under the floorboards. He stayed there for a year and a half, between two floors in the house. He'd come out from time to time--I'm living proof of that "), his career, friendships and marriage, successes and regrets, his approaches to art and teaching, how he created various installations, his relations with dealers and the public, and other matters that illuminate as never before his complex, enigmatic works. Boltanski is refreshingly phlegmatic about the realities of the world (art and otherwise), and he relates his remarkable stories--some enormously amusing, others tragic--with a matter-of-factness and self-deprecating humor that highlight his capacity for humane responsiveness. As both the self-portrait of a major contemporary artist and a frank, fascinating memoir, this is a document of capital importance.

"This book is a journey through the defining moments and choices in the life and career of Christian Boltanski, which led the artist to reflect upon the outcome of some of the main historical events of the twentieth century and on the need to reconsider appropriate methods of representation. History, histories and the statute of the image are the fulcrums of the conversation he proposes. This conversation focuses in particular on the following fundamental themes: the difference between collective memory, recollection and oblivion; the relation between the individual and the crowd; the entity of absence intended as proof of a destroyed presence, but also as a device for the reactivation of memory; the incidence of an isolated gaze, that of the observer, upon whose primacy the history of western art has built its foundations."--Back cover.

Né à Paris en 1944, Christian Boltanski sait, dès l'âge de treize ans, qu'il sera artiste.¦Aujourd'hui, il est l'une des figures incontournables de l'histoire de l'art contemporaine français et international, auteur d'une oeuvre de référence qui a su toucher un large public. Depuis la fin des années soixante, sa pratique artistique polymorphe traite d'une manière singulière des thèmes de l'enfance, de l'identité, de la mort, des archives et du temps. A partir d'un vocabulaire formel reconnaissable et de matériaux simples (photographies, archives, vêtements), il met en scène la rencontre entre mémoire personnelle et mémoire collective, faisant notamment revivre le souvenir des tragédies du XXe siècle.¦Se déployant des arts plastiques aux spectacles, son oeuvre offre une réflexion sur le statut de l'image, du témoignage et de l'art. Du premier atelier sous les combles, jusqu'aux plus grands musées et aux lieux les plus insolites, quarante années de création sont ici présentées, retraçant le parcours d'un artiste profondément humain et humaniste. ¦

"Christian Boltanski" Gloria Moure Christian Boltanski's first one-man Paris exhibition took place precisely in May 1968: at least in theory, therefore, his personality should coincide exactly with the archetypal "soixantehuitard "that postmodern critics are at such pains to discredit. On the other hand, however, if his work is examined retrospectively and compared to what young artists are producing today, a considerable number of connections is revealed which denotes at least identification between different creative approaches and very probably a considerable degree of influence. This would coincide with evidence that criticism of modernity is not the exclusive province of those who over the last fifteen or twenty years seem to have appropriated it for themselves. On the contrary, his irreverent stance regarding modern idealism has its roots far back in the past and even justifies the whole disposition and creative quests of many artists now considered to be historical, Christian Boltanski among them. Gloria Moure, current director of the Centro Galego de Arte Contemporanea in Santiago de Compostela, presents us here with the results of Boltanski's first retrospective in Spain, "Advento," held in the highly unusual setting of the Church of San Domingos de Bonaval, for which the artist produced a "work of works" containing both well-known pieces and others created specifically for the space. This book, besides taking us on a visual itinerary through the world created by Boltanski in Santiago, also offers other projects conducted by the artist and features essays by Jean Clair, Jose Jimenez and Gloria Moure herself, including an interview with Christian Boltanski. All thiswill undoubtedly contribute to bringing us closer to an artist whose oeuvre constitutes one of the most interesting of recent decades.
