About Jean-Charles de Quillacq
Born in 1979, Jean-Charles de Quillacq studied at the École des Beaux-Arts in Lyon, the Weißensee Kunsthochschule in Berlin and the Rijksakademie in Amsterdam. His work focuses on the body, combining material processes and aesthetic forms articulated through historical concepts, social structures and emotional states. Bodies inhabit porous spaces and are subjected to contradictory regimes.

His work has been exhibited at the Musée d'Art Moderne de Paris, the Palais de Tokyo and the Centre Pompidou in France, and the Bemis Art Center in the United States, as well as at MUDAM Luxembourg and M Museum in Belgium. Recent solo exhibitions include ‘Daddy is Home’ at Kunsthaus Biel (Switzerland, 2025), ‘a real boy’ at the Chapelle des Petits-Augustins (Beaux-Arts de Paris, France, 2024), ‘Sepultura’ at Café des Glaces (Tonnerre, France, 2024), ‘Pros’ at Ampersand (Lisbon, Portugal, 2023), ‘Ma sis t’aime reproductive’ at art3 (Valence, France, 2021) and ‘Ma système reproductive’ at Bétonsalon (Paris, 2019).

For Quillacq, the exhibition also frequently operates as a performative space in which he plays with both the delegation and the authority of his works, resulting in several performances, including ‘The Alternate’ and ‘L’Imitation par les larmes’ at Les Ateliers de Rennes, biennale d'art contemporain, ‘Tampered Emotions’ and ‘Lust for Dust’ at Triangle (Marseille) and “Fraternité Passivité Bienvenue” at the Palais de Tokyo.

He co-authored the book ‘Saint-Pierre-des-corps’ with Elsa Vettier in 2020 and was a resident at the Villa Medici in Rome in 2023 – 24.

About Marcelle Alix
Marcelle Alix currently represents thirteen artists and two duos. Their identity has been shaped both by the artists who defined their founding programme—Aurélien Froment, Louise Hervé & Clovis Maillet, Charlotte Moth, Ernesto Sartori, Marie Voignier—and by those we have helped establish on the French art scene—Pauline Boudry/Renate Lorenz, Ian Kiaer, Mira Schor, and Donna Gottschalk. Over the years, they have supported the sustained development of long-standing careers—among them Laura Lamiel and Liz Magor, whom they alone present in Europe—while nurturing new voices in sculpture (Gyan Panchal, Jean-Charles de Quillacq), video (Lola Gonzalez), and drawing (Armineh Negahdari).
