Claire Fontaine

Claire Fontaine is a Paris-based collective artist founded in 2004. After lifting her name from a popular brand of school notebooks in homage to Marcel Duchamp’s Fountain, from 1917, Claire Fontaine declared herself a “ready-made artist.” She elaborates a version of neo-conceptual art in neon, video, sculpture, painting, and text. A new book by Claire Fontaine will be published in 2019: La grève humaine et l’art de créer la liberté. www.clairefontaine.ws
