Jeff Guess
Jeff Guess is an artist and professor of digital media at l'Ecole Nationale Supérieure d'Arts Paris-Cergy. His work, be it in photography, expanded cinematic forms, or software-based installations and performances, is predominantly an investigation of the technical image and its multifarious entanglements with language. Some of his most recent exhibitions include: Nouvelles acquisitions, Les Abattoirs, Toulouse, Poetics of Light - Pinhole Photography, New Mexico History Museum, Santa Fe, Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating in Space, Young Projects, Los Angeles, and the Show Off art fair at the Espace Pierre Cardin, Paris.
He is also co-directing Media Mediums, a research project exploring the archeology and speculative future of a long series of technical objects, machines and devices, both implemented and hypothetical, which have as a foundational principle the transportation of information, and their relationship to a wide range of spirit and supranormal phenomena. An exhibition will take place this spring at the gallery Ygrec, Paris and a catalogue will be published by Les Presses du Réel in 2014-15.
