Daniel Dezeuze's Expanded Writings: 1967-2008

publication · 2026-04-23

Beaux-arts de Paris éditions has released an expanded edition of Daniel Dezeuze's collected writings, covering 1967 to 2008. The volume includes critical texts, interviews, and poems, with a preface by Henri-Claude Cousseau. Dezeuze, a key figure in the Supports-Surfaces movement, explores the interplay between volume and plane, hand and eye, and maintains a critical, gnostic position. The collection reveals his practice of 'ajours'—creating airy spaces within dense representation—and his fidelity to the initial impulse of Supports-Surfaces without liquidation or fetishism.
