Bio — Audrey Guttman

Audrey Guttman (b. 1987, Brussels) makes questions material. Trained in art history and literature at EHESS Paris, she works with photographic processes, collage, sculpture, installation and poetry, using philosophy and art history as working tools rather than references. She builds from salvaged materials and inherited images. Each exhibition proceeds as a chapter in an ongoing inquiry into what lies underneath an image, one that branches rather than concludes. In 2024 Christie's Paris gave her carte blanche for the centenary of Surrealism, a lineage she approaches as a practitioner rather than a historian. Recent exhibitions include Saint Laurent Paris and Los Angeles, and Galerie Zlotowski, Paris. She lives and works between Paris and Brussels.
