WORDS MARINA ROMITI
Born in France (1963) Xavier Veilhan has chosen Paris as his home base for his work, which is now exhibited in galleries and private and public collections worldwide. His works, which arise from a conceptual idea, are exemplified in a deep knowledge and ability of manufactural and technological artistic techniques: cinema, video, monumental painting, photography, site specific installations, sculpture, design, music, architecture.

From the exhibition Veilhan Versaillles (2009) he is one of the most acclaimed French artists of today. Read More.
