His work is based on the hermeticism of language and on art's capacity to invent systems of representation between play and logic. In contrast with the white cube usually used as the exhibition site, Guy de Cointet's work takes place in an ambiguous, borderline territory between museum and stage, since his installations were conceived as theatre sets and as artefacts with meaning and narrative function. Guy de Cointet, an artist's artist, also represents a turning point in Californian/ West Coast conceptual art, a point of reference for Allen Ruppersberg or early artists such as Mike Kelley and Paul McCarthy, and one of the keys for understanding the renewed interest in performative practices based on narration, so characteristic of artists such as Dora García, Catherine Sullivan and Julien Bismuth."},{"locale":"nl","short_description":"","description":"[Guy de Cointet](http://www.guydecointet.org) is een van die kunstenaars bij wie, sinds het einde van de jaren 1960, de nieuwe relatie tussen theater en hedendaagse kunst het best tot uiting komt.

In tegenstelling tot de gewoonlijke ‘white cube’ van de tentoonstellingsruimte vindt het werk van Guy de Cointet plaats in het ambigue grensgebied tussen museum en podium: zijn installaties werden opgevat als theaterdecors en artefacten met betekenis en een verhalende rol. Als een echte ‘artist’s artist’, of ‘kunstenaarskunstenaar’, staat Guy de Cointet voor een kantelpunt in de conceptuele kunst van Californië of de Westkust, een referentiepunt voor Allen Ruppersberg of vroege kunstenaars als Mike Kelley en Paul McCarthy. Zijn werk bevat de sleutel om de hernieuwde interesse te begrijpen voor performatieve toepassingen op basis van verhalen – typisch voor kunstenaars als Dora García, Catherine Sullivan en Julien Bismuth."},{"locale":"fr","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"ru","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"de","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"es","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"el","short_description":"","description":""}],"locations":[{"country":"France","place":"Paris","category":{"en":"Born in","nl":"Geboren in","fr":"Né à"}},{"country":"United States","place":"Los Angeles","category":{"en":"Works in","nl":"Werkt in ","fr":"Travaille à"}}]}
