The oeuvre of Jean Dupuy combines art and technology within the fields of conceptual, performance, installation, video and other forms of art. Perhaps lesser known is his fondness for anagrams, which this volume elucidates in full through hundreds of examples. Often paired with one of his own works, the clever rearrangements of small texts serve as anecdotes, memories, simple humour, or descriptions of the work itself, narrating its creative process or essential aspects. As Emmanuelle Lequeux claims in her essay, Dupuy is an “alchemist of words”, and views his own colourful writings as a form of equilibrium, a closed world within which subtle wit and meaning can be born.
