The first monograph of Prune Nourry, one of the most influential contemporary artists today "Prune Nourry is more than a great artist. She's also a psychologist, a sociologist, and an anthropologist who uses her understanding of history and humanity to create art that connects us to our past and to each other." --George Lucas Prune Nourry is a contemporary artist specializing in sculpture, while also exploring varied mediums including film, photography, and performance. She raises ethical questions linked to the notion of balance in the broadest sense: the body and its healing process, demographic imbalance due to gender selection and scientific aberrations, ecosystems and the interdependence between living species. Nourry's work is geographically and temporally contextualized through investigations that draw on disciplines outside the field of art. The year 2016 marked a turning point in her personal and artistic journey when she learned, at the age of 31, that she had breast cancer. She became, by force of circumstance, the subject of her work, whereas until then she had taken an objective look at the world and its imbalances.
