If you pass through Grenoble this month of December and have time to spare, visit l'exposition de Noël du Magasin and leave with a free postcard!

I also did the visual for the flyer. You might maybe recognize an item borrowed from a painting by talented artist Johan Rivat.

If one asks if I've did the visual for free in exchange of a selection in the exhibition, answer yes!

In 2010, I received from my city, Grenoble, 2000 euros, in order to be a young artist. The condition was to include on every communications about my work, the logo of the city. As I am my own support of communcation and piece of art, I did this tattoo and printed it on postcards.

I spent the money left to filling up my fridge...

DAY WITHOUT IMMIGRANTS

2010-03-01T12:06:00.000-08:00

01 / 03 / 2010

Hello,
By solidarity with the "Day Without Immigrants" organized by the same name's collective,

I inform you that I will not work or will not consume on monday March the 1st, 2010 all day long.

I will not use no water, no electricity, no food, no fuel,
I shall therefore not be at my workplace or at home.
Will not be contacted either by mail or phone.

I will not use this day to make art.
Even if doing nothing is a part of my art, I will not even do it since it's already too much.

You can too if you want.
Best regards

Bonjour,
par solidarité avec "La Journée Sans Immigrés" organisée par le collectif du même nom,

je vous informe que je ne travaillerai ni ne consommerai pas durant toute la journée du Lundi 1er Mars 2010.

Je n'utiliserai ni eau, ni électricité, ni nourriture, ni carburant,
Je ne serai donc pas présent sur mon lieu de travail ni à mon domicile.
Ne serai pas joignable ni par mail ni par téléphone.

Je ne me servirai même pas de cette journée pour faire de l'art.
Et bien que ne rien faire soit une part de mon travail, je ne ferai même pas rien puisque c'est déjà en faire trop.

Vous pouvez aussi si vous voulez.
Cordialement

Stéphane

Ecology is a question of MORE or LESS.
People who care says: "ONE MORE litter is allready too much" when people who don't care answer: "It's Not ONE LESS wich gonna change something".

EGOlogy work against ECOlogy.
We wast in order to concerve ourself.
Travels in a country like India and you will understand.
I heard so many "white rasta" teaching me "THE SOLUTION FOR AN ECOLOGIC WORLD" drinking packaged water instead of treating local one...
I'm not better tham them.
I prefer don't moralize anybody and just notice it out.

On spring 2008, I participate to the exhibition Michel de Certeau at Oui. I was very proud because George Brecht was participating too with the three chair events.

Naively, I ask to the curatorial team if he gonna come for the opening. Everybody laugh, so me too, in order to cover up my stupidity in joke...

On the 2nd of December, I went on the freeday of San Francisco Moma to visit the exhibition "the art of participation -1950 to now".

On a corner, an asian grandmother had a rest on a white chair. It was one of the three chair events.

George Brecht died on the 5th of December.
Here is a modest tribute.

12 ways to visit the documenta Kassel
2007, Kassel
500 ex.

Visiting a contempory art fair might not be an easy exercice for someone who's not used to it.
So here's our suggestions, twelve different ways to have fun during such an event, enjoy.

Visit the event by night, breaking the security system.

Try to find the weirdest artist names presenting works during the fair.

Use an inappropriate map - visit the first floor using the second floor's map, etc.

Try to find and classify the emergency issues alphabetically.

Visit empty or less populated spaces first.

Try to steal a maximum number of cartels.

Visiting by redudancy - focus on a colour or an item such as red, skull, sex, etc.

Try to figure out dead artists presenting works.

Wear dark sunglasses.

Whenever it is forbidden to do so, try to touch artworks with dirty fingers if possible.

Pick a child or a group of children as your guide.

Start by following someone hot & sexy and change your partner every 10 minutes.

LA TRAVERSEE DE GRENOBLE EN SKATE!

2007-01-14T05:52:00.000-08:00

Grenoble / Isère, France
2005/2007

Grenoble (city of Isère, France) own the longest straight road of Europe with 8 km! Nobody know that because the street had been divided in four parts in order to keep the "Champs Elysèe" (in a city called Paris) the longuest of France with only 2 ridiculous km...

Starting from "Porte de France" It's successively called Jean Jaurès, de la Libération et du Général de Gaulle, Jean Jaurès again and finaly Saint André.

This action is a manifestation against "the amalgam of a Resistance idol, a military fascist, and a religous radical on a background of despoliation".
