Author Description

Isaac Julien (b. London 1960) is a filmmaker and visual artist whose work revolves around social issues relating to race, gender, and migration. In recent years, Julienœs work has focused on video installations that reflect on montage, narrative, and technology in audiovisual productions, and the spatiality of the image. In this way, he continues to address themes important to the contemporary world through works of fiction. These include the capitalist economy, which is the focus of the video installations "Playtime" and "Kapital". (2013)
