Julien Hyvrard is a medium fluid documentarian and conceptual artist. Based in the Southern US since 2015, he is currently photographer and video maker for Oui Collective, the creative workshop he co-cofounded in Miami. Born and raised in France, he studied philosophy at Sorbonne University. He spent 9 transformative years in Buenos Aires, where he began experimenting with documentary form and conceptual series. At the confluence of three cultural and linguistic streams, from France to Argentina to the US, collaborative at heart, Julien’s practice is generally process-oriented, open ended, reiterative and often aporetic. It involves time based documentation, site specific installation, unpublished books, performed and not performed performances. Julien's work has been supported by Bass Museum (Miami), Perez Art Museum (Miami), Mana Contemporary (Miami), Jean Brolly Gallery (Paris), Centre Culturel Bruegel (Brussels), Project Row House (Houston) and he is currently juror of the following short film festivals: Venezia Shorts (Italy), Indie Shorts Award (New York), Hollywood Shortfest (LA), and Cannes Indie Shorts Awards (France).
