The Possible Life of Christian Boltanski

Christian Boltanski, Catherine Grenier, translated by Marc Lowenthal, foreword by Luc Sante

Editorial Reviews
“A unique and fascinating memoir” (ForeWord).
“This gripping overview of the artist’s life and work is especially welcome” (ARTnews).
“Absorbing…Perhaps more so than any other living artist, Boltanski is a voice for those who endured the horrors of the Holocaust” (Bookforum).
“Joins a small shelf of similarly indelible books, such as Marcel Duchamp’s interview with Pierre Cabanne or Howard Hawks’s with Joseph McBride [that] can be read and reread with pleasure” (Luc Sante).
“An inspired book that prompts the reader to ponder one’s own childhood and mortality…a provocative read” (Rain Taxi).
