Jean-Ulrick Désert Born in Port-au-prince, Jean-Ulrick Désert received his degrees at Cooper Union and Columbia University (New York). Emerging from a tradition of conceptual-work engaged with social/cultural practices, his artworks vary in forms such as billboards, actions, paintings, site-specific sculptures, video and objects. Known for his “Negerhosen2000” and his provocative “Burqa Project”, Désert often combines cultural iconographies and historical metaphor to disrupt, alter and shift pre-supposed meaning.
He has said his practice may be characterized as visualizing “conspicuous invisibility”. Désert has exhibited widely at such venues as The Brooklyn Museum, Cité Internationale des Arts, The Neue Gesellschaft für Bildende Kunst and in galleries and public venues . He lives and works in Berlin, Germany.
