James Webb est un artiste conceptuel, connu pour ses interventions et ses installations, con\u00e7ues sp\u00e9cifiquement pour certains espaces. Sa pratique fait souvent appel aux sons, aux objets trouv\u00e9s et au texte en invoquant des r\u00e9f\u00e9rences \u00e0 la litt\u00e9rature, au cin\u00e9ma, et aux traditions conceptuelles. En d\u00e9tournant objets, techniques et formes au-del\u00e0 de leurs contextes d\u2019origine, et en les introduisant dans diff\u00e9rents environnements, Webb cr\u00e9e de nouveaux espaces de tension. Ces nouvelles m\u00e9thodologies mettent en relation les domaines d\u2019exp\u00e9riences de Webb en religions compar\u00e9es, \u00e9tudes th\u00e9\u00e2trales et publicit\u00e9 en proposant des enqu\u00eates po\u00e9tiques sur les syst\u00e8mes de croyance et les dynamiques de communication dans notre monde contemporain.<\/p>\n

Son travail a \u00e9t\u00e9 pr\u00e9sent\u00e9 dans de nombreuses institutions internationales parmi lesquelles : la\u00a0Biennale des Arts Islamiques de Djeddah (2023), la 16e Biennale de Lyon (2022, 2007), 12e Biennale Internationale de Curitiba (2019), la 13e Biennale de Dakar (2018), l\u2019Art Institute of Chicago (\u00c9tats\u2011Unis, 2018), la 4e Triennale Prospect de la Nouvelle\u2011Orl\u00e9ans (2017), la documenta 14 (2017), la\u00a013e Biennale de Sharjah (2017), la 12e Biennale de la Havane (2015), la\u00a055e Biennale de Venise (2013), CentroCentro, Madrid (Espagne, 2013).<\/p>\n

Cr\u00e9\u00e9e en 2004, There\u2019s No Place Called Home<\/i><\/span> est une intervention r\u00e9currente dans laquelle des enregistrements audios de cris d\u2019oiseaux \u00e9trangers sp\u00e9cifiques sont d\u00e9ploy\u00e9s dans des environnements locaux. Les vocalisations des oiseaux sont souvent utilis\u00e9es pour marquer leur territoire et attirer leurs partenaires, mais comme le son incongru de l\u2019\u0153uvre d\u2019art n\u2019interf\u00e8re pas avec les esp\u00e8ces indig\u00e8nes ou n\u2019est pas reconnu par elles, il devient un leurre et un message po\u00e9tique pour le public humain.<\/p>\n

James Webb is a conceptual artist known for his site-specific interventions and installations. His practice often makes use of sound, found objects and text, invoking references to literature, film and conceptual traditions. By diverting objects, techniques and forms beyond their original contexts, and introducing them into different environments, Webb creates new spaces of tension. These new methodologies bring together Webb’s areas of experience in comparative religion, theatre studies and advertising, offering poetic investigations of belief systems and communication dynamics in our contemporary world.<\/em><\/p>\n

His work has been presented in numerous international institutions including: the Jeddah Islamic Arts Biennial (2023), the 16th Lyon Biennial (2022, 2007), the 12th Curitiba International Biennial (2019), the 13th Dakar Biennial (2018), the Art Institute of Chicago (United States, 2018), the 4th Prospect Triennial in New Orleans (2017), documenta 14 (2017), the 13th Sharjah Biennale (2017), the 12th Havana Biennale (2015), the 55th Venice Biennale (2013), CentroCentro, Madrid (Spain, 2013).<\/p>\n

Created in 2004, There’s No Place Called Home is a recurring intervention in which audio recordings of specific foreign bird calls are deployed in local environments. Bird vocalisations are often used to mark territory and attract mates, but as the incongruous sound of the artwork does not interfere with or is not recognised by native species, it becomes a decoy and a poetic message for the human audience.
