Klappentext

Isabelle Cornaro, born in 1974 and based in Paris and Geneva, holds degrees in art history and visual arts. She has a strong interest in experimental cinema and devotes herself to the narrative, symbolic, or economic origins of things. In her work she almost assumes an anthropologist's manner to investigate people's seemingly fixated attachment to often emotionally charged, even fetishized objects, creating large stage installations or short movies.

On Words is a collection of interviews with leading contemporary women artists. In conversation with Julie Enckell Julliard, Federica Martini, and Sarah Burkhalter, they speak about the sources from which they draw inspiration, themes in their work, and their view of the world. The series brings together a wide range of viewpoints and adds a new narrative to polyphonic art history as told by those who actively shape it.
