Jean-Charles de Quillacq

Born: 1979

in Parthenay (France).

He lives and works in Roma (Italia).

Through his sculptures, Jean-Charles de Quillacq examines the relationship with the body, showing how it can be penetrated and permeated by our capitalist economies. He develops sculpture series that are both organic and abstract, conceptual and fetishistic, which he presents by inviting other people to take part in their exhibition protocols. He has produced several performances including Transport Amoureux à Triangle-Astérides in 2018 and Fraternité Passivité Bienvenue at the Palais de Tokyo in 2016. From 2023 to 2024, he was resident at Villa Medici in Rome. Beginning in September 2025, he is presenting a solo exhibition at the Kunsthaus Biel Centre d’art Bienne, titled Daddy is Home.
