Bertrand Flanet lives and works in Frankfurt am Main. He studied Art History at Marc Bloch University, Strasbourg, France. Since 2012 he is part of the Douglas Gordon’s Filmklasse at the Städelschule, Frankfurt am Main, Germany. His practice consists in building narratives that deal with the regime of possible of Human societies. From economy to science; sociology to technology his work investigates on the belief, faith and desire of the modern Man, thus diving into ontological and existential questionings: what does it mean to be Human?
