| Title: Kronos |
| By (author): Victor Boullet |
| ISBN10-13: 190880601X : 9781908806017 |
| Estate Of is the new publication series from Antenne Publishing. Published twice a year in a magazine-like stapled format, each edition is given to a single artist working with photographs as a space to realise projects. Estate Of aims to become a meeting point between an informal physical object, and a substantial body of work from an individual artist. Kronos by Victor Boullet is the first publication in the Estate Of series. Victor Boulletâ s title refers to the Greek god Kronos, a deity known for its doublesidedness, a concept closely connected to his project The Institute of Social Hypocrisy. The publication Kronos is a means to carry his work forward into a newer form of expression, whilst maintaining a constant sense of dichotomy. The act of art production becomes a performance. The photographs serve as a documentation of performances made in the artistâ s private domain; his apartment in Paris, a holiday home on the Scottish coast. Spaces that are so personal as to allow the work to become an existential exploration. The works themselves, invariably, seem to hold no meaning with a rawness and naivety that could be perceived as covertly provocative. When asked to discuss the content and concept of this publication, Boullet declined, saying it was all too personal and to make of it what we will. Boullet uses text as a means for miscommunication and confusion where personal musings are incomprehensible and impenetrable. Where elements of commercial branding are integrated into painting, performance and text works, Boullet considers the pretence and affectation brought about by wearing brands, thus creating a product of himself. Questions are raised as to whether the works are entirely serious or whether there is an element of fun being poked at the notion of what it is to be an artist. The imagery is presented as an imperfect document not to be taken at face value. The very question of truth underpins Kronos. |

| Title: Philip Glass 5th October 1995 New York City |
| By (author): Victor Boullet |
| ISBN10-13: 1908806079 : 9781908806079 |
| In 1995, while visiting New York, Victor Boullet managed to secure a portrait sitting with the composer Philip Glass in his New York townhouse. In â Philip Glass 5th October 1995 New York Cityâ , Boullet reveals the entire unedited portrait session including every frame, along with his contact sheets. In this sequence of photographs and Boulletâ s accompanying essay, which amusingly recounts the story behind his morning with Philip Glass, Boulletâ s portrayal of the composer and his own thoughts, mishaps and insecurities coincide to create a double portrait of the artist and his sitter. "Portraying someone connected to culture or fame can be a way of climbing a social ladder just by being associated with the sitter, I have used this to my advantage, but this was not the case that day I rang Philip Glass, I was a fan and bored. The playing stopped. Silence. Footsteps. There he was in front of me, Philip Glass. He looked at me with a startled expression, first at my face, then down at my shoes. He then rapidly moved his eyeballs towards my yellow plastic suitcase containing my camera, he lifted his head and sort of looked behind me, and uttered: is that all?â - Victor Boullet Antenne Publishing is delighted to present its first major publication: Philip Glass 5th October 1995 New York City by Victor Boullet. |

| Title: Time is the Assassin |
| By (author): Victor Boullet, Kristian Skylstad |
| ISBN10-13: 1908806028 : 9781908806024 |
| Victor Boullet's new book Time is the Assassin takes the form of an autobiographical novel, ghostwritten by Kristian Skylstad. The story follows Victor, his two brothers, and two of their friends on a night out in the neighborhood were Victor grew up (and Skylstad too, as chance would have it. ) Time is the Assassin is narrated chiefly in the form of a dialog between the five of them, interspersed with flashbacks to Victor's past and the increasingly perverse and surreal events of their intoxicated night as it unfolds, out of Victor's hands. Autobiographical truth and the presumed consistency of Victor's self gradually unravels as it merges with Skylstad's attempts at expanding the reflective operations of his character across an insurmountable array of topics and references, abandoning the concept of autobiography in favour of a furious, interpretative, projective and wildly schizophrenic prose-exposition of the narrative's central character, Victor Boullet. The text feels written with the sadistic glee of a ghostwriter that knows his subject is bound by contract to accept his version as final. Sophisticated montage technique is conflated with shameless plagiarism and downright theft. The facts that constitute the autobiographical part of this book are only a point of departure for a foray into the confused and tormented psyche of. well, that's hard to tell. Wether unwitting victim or self-abasing man-in-control, Victor Boullet emerges from the ruins of this narrative certainly not unscathed, and assuredly not whole.

| Title: Toxteth Error Lad Painting Liverpool 2014 - 2021 |
| By (author): Victor Boullet |
| ISBN10-13: 1908873035 : 9781908873033 |
| In 2014 Victor Boullet opted out of the Parisian art scene and installed himself in Liverpool â a self-imposed isolation from the international art world and its networks and socialising that had been the fuel for his previous project. In Liverpool, Boullet ensconces himself in his studio and with minimal contact with others, spends weeks, months, years immersing himself in painting as a practice within his neo-traditional framework. The daily journey on foot from his Georgian townhouse to the studio in socially-deprived Toxteth, a journey made over 6000 times in 7 years, gave rise to a routine built from the relentless need to keep on visiting the studio and to paint, day in, day out. His time in Liverpool has created an immense body of work, hundreds of paintings and thousands of drawings. Renditions of his own face with mouth gaping accompanied by other disjointed body parts, arranged alongside cucumbers, cutlery and tableware into still life. This book is the culmination of these years in exile. Essays by Dag Erik Elgin, Jeremy Glogan, Stian Gabrielsen and Victor Boullet Edited by Stian Gabrielsen Design by Texas Knuller |
