Pierre-Philippe Hofmann

Pierre-Philippe Hofmann explo­res the com­plexi­ty of the world through a prac­ti­ce root­ed in lands­ca­pe, wal­king, and instal­la­ti­on. His work, situ­a­ted bet­ween con­cep­tu­al tra­di­ti­on and phe­no­me­no­lo­gi­cal expe­rien­ce, see­ks to make visi­ble the mul­ti­ple lay­ers of our envi­ron­ment. The long-term pro­ject Portrait of a Landscape embo­dies this search for a sys­te­mic rea­ding of the world. He pla­ces strong emp­ha­sis on col­lec­ti­ve pro­jects and plu­ri­dis­ci­pli­na­ri­ty: after twen­ty years as a video artist in the­a­tre and ope­ra, he col­la­bo­ra­ted with Les Ballets C de la B, Alain Platel, and Berlinde De Bruyckere for nicht sch­la­fen (2017). With Ad Libitum, he sta­ges rea­li­ty alongsi­de Mathias Domahidy. 

He is cur­rent­ly devel­o­ping a trans­dis­ci­pli­na­ry pro­ject com­bi­ning cho­re­o­grap­hy and landscape.
