Raffi

This first collaboration with Parisian Laundry gallery will present the new interactive installation of Jean-Claude Bustros, Raffi.

From 1999 to 2004 while making frequent visits to his New York apartment, Bustros documented Raffi on film and video format. The different portraits confronts the visitor to the many personas of Raffi. While navigating, by one’s simple presence in front of the image, the episodes presented on the 5 screens of the installation, each viewer will construct a different portrait of the subject of the piece. The viewer’s investment in the piece thus determines what he or she sees and hears and in the end what they will learn or not about Raffi.
