Born in 1970 in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso. Lives and works in Paris. After a degree in sociology and visual arts, Vincent Fournier graduated from the Ecole nationale supérieure de la photographie (ENSP) in Arles in 1997. He explores, with photography but also other mixed media, the various mythologies of the future: the space adventure, the utopian architectures, the artificial intelligence and the transformation of the living. His works are part of several collections, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art (MET) in New York, the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris, the MAST Foundation in Bologna, the Collection Dragonfly of Domaine des Étangs in Massignac, the LVMH collection in Paris and the Bullukian Foundation in Lyon.
He has collaborated with Louis Vuitton, Baccarat New York Hotel, Isetan Tokyo and Columbia Pictures. His project Post Natural History was published as a box set by Be-Poles (2013), as a book by Noeve Editions (2019) and was the subject of many presentations in museums and institutions such as the MET in New York, the Mori Art Museum in Tokyo, the ArtScience Museum in Singapore, the EDF Foundation in Paris, the MAD in Paris, the Cnap in Pontmain, Australian Centre for Photography in Sydney, the Netherlands Architecture Institute (NAI) in Rotterdam and the Science Gallery in Dublin, among others.
