Alexandre Khondji
Lives and works in Paris, France
Biography
Alexandre Khondji's practice is rooted in research-driven site-specificity. His works, varied in form and complexity, delicately balance intervention with the properties of the contexts they inhabit.
Khondji lives and works in Paris. His first solo exhibition with the gallery took place in 2025. His work has also been exhibited at the 4th Okayama Art Summit, the Fondation Pernod Ricard in Paris, the Museum für moderne Kunst (MMK) in Frankfurt, the Capc Musée d’art contemporain in Bordeaux, and the LUMA Foundation in Arles.
