French, born in 1979
Refusing to have a full biography published about him, Loris Gréaud is a mysterious conceptual artist whose shape-shifting work is hard to circumscribe. Aiming to erase the lines we draw between fiction and reality, his work invents new ways of appearing in works of art.
Gréaud trained on the flute at the Paris Conservatory and founded the electronic music label "Sibilance Production". He expresses himself as much through music as through sculpture, painting, video, performance and installations. Gréaud achieved international recognition in the mid-2000s. In 2008 he became the first artist to occupy the entire Palais de Tokyo, with his Cellar Door project, which subsequently toured museums around the world.
Gréaud's installation Spore Speakers, which is in the Pinault Collection, was exhibited in 2009 during the exhibition "Un certain état du monde ?" (“A Certain State of the World?”) at the Garage Center for Contemporary Culture in Moscow.
