Supported by the indie-rock community, from Sonic Youth’s Thurston Moore to Herman Düne, the work of Julien Langendorff, 23 years old, finds its right place between a moving fragility, intimate issues that make people talk about “diary-art” while evoquiing his art and strong diy attitude related to the various underground scenes he sticks to.

The worlds he creates, with a pen and paper or along sculptures and hauting installations that mix drawings, videos and various materials are meant to set moody and poetic atmospheres coming from both oniric visions and visual translations of his daily life.

He has been studying graphic design and fashion at the superior school of applied Arts Duppérré for 4 years ans has been involved inseveral solo shows in Paris, Berlin and New-York within this year.

Julien Langendorff also self published two books, and sold 500 copies of each in such places as centre Pompidou, Palais de Tokyo, Colette, Galerie du Jour Agnes B, Yvon Lambert Gallery in Paris, Cinders Gallery and various bookstores in New York.

He lives and works in Paris, France.
