Bio & Approach

Born in 1970 in Pamplona, Spain, Javier Aristu is a visual artist who mainly uses photography, graphics, video, objects or texts and is especially interested in the relationships between image and word, reality and chance or meaning and nonsense. His work can be categorized into two areas, a photographic one dominated by looking and a conceptual one marked by thinking. Among his most conscious influences are Bruce Nauman, Elliott Erwitt, Piero Manzoni, Robert Frank or Hans-Peter Feldmann, while the unconscious ones are countless
