Noé Grenier

Born in 1987 in Saint Dalmas le Selvage, France (France)


Noé Grenier graduated from the Ecole supérieure des Beaux-Arts de Montpellier Agglomération in 2011. Since then, he has concentrated his practice on the re-appropriation of images, either working from the classics of genre cinema or from photographs and videos collected on the internet.
His video practice questions the time constructions specific to each register of images, and the spectator's perception of these same images. With the cut, edit, past process, or with out of sync and repetitions, his works try to "extend the notion of seeing" referring to conceptions of time and movement in Bergson and attempting thus to question the perception of movement in the video image as a "series of still images that one's eye has to activate".
Conscious of the materiality of the image and its document status, Noé Grenier also experiments with transferring digital images through various traditional mediums. He underlines the problems linked to copyright and the frontier between private space and public space on the Internet by confronting the methods of historical representation of photography and video art.
