Manon Labrecque : Corps en chute

This publication, the outcome of several interviews conducted by Gingras with the artist, documents Labrecque’s videos, performances and drawings, some of which were produced following a visit to Mongolia. Gingras deals with Labrecque’s approach to treating imagery, and describes the various states of the body she explores in her works: the body as machine, as communicator, as catalyst, the obsessive body… The author also points to a number of analogies with the work of Bruce Nauman.
