Alison Jackson is renown for her explorations into how photography and the cult of the celebrity have transformed our relationship to what is ‘real’. Her notorious photographic portraits, life-like sculptures, films and videos are startlingly realistically staged affairs that cast uncannily styled actors into an entirely fathomable projection of a future that could have been; or the intimate, often salacious, imagined private moments of media icons such as Diana Princess of Wales, the Queen of England, Marilyn Monroe, George Bush, Brad and Angelina, and David Beckham. Jackson’s productions stress-test the implicit belief that a photograph can capture a frozen moment of ‘truth’.
Toutes les images figurant sur cette page sont fausses. C'est important de le préciser, car c'est au cœur de la démarche de 'artiste : nous montrer ce que l'on aimerait voir, et nous faire réfléchir sur la relation entre l'image photographique et la ""vérité"". C'est un thème qui parlerait à André Gunthert. Je me demande s'il connait la démarche de cette artiste.
