Archiver émerger
DÉFINITIONS MÉTHODES + ARCHIVER EMERGER is a body of works produced along three years of meticulous work of solve and coagula by the director Philip Boulay in the district of Sept Arpents, in Paris suburban town Près St. Gervais: Histoires du bout de la Rue Béranger (chansonnier born in 1780 and died in 1857). Boulay’s project, both complex and modest, is based on a strong artistic and ethical approach: being the fiber of a territory. Without the obsession of having to formalize an artwork or a show. A work of art and its project can be tools of knowledge and understanding. They can define positions, attempts, strategies and methods. They can question their inner matter and the outer matters. Definitions Méthode has its roots in the footsteps, physically, of Philip Boulay in his research approach. How to write the unwritten world with photography? I record positions. I borrow from Claude Rutault.Archiver émerger documents archival forms from the stories archived by Philip Boulay.
