About the Boz
The Boz is a universe full of enchanters, created by Julien Friedler. It comes from a singular experience of the divine, enhanced by a string of artworks (videos, paintings, performances, installations, etc.). Interacting with each other, these works are also connected to a core book : “The Book of Boz”. Three characters will explore it from side to side : Jack Balance (a metaphysical clown revolting against his creator); Me (an hyperbolically narcissic clown covered by mirrors); and its Scribe (a third clown, responsible of the others’ destiny). The lattest will be held up to public obloquy by his readers.
The Boz will be conceived as an always expanding universe, which spearhead will a new art form, designed by and for the masses, on a minimal support (a questionnaire, any object, a sketch,..) : BE ART.
Eventually, the main stake of this plan will be to give an answer to the moral misery so important in our societies.
In this purpose, we’ll imagine a village of boz, thought as an ideal to reach.
In an article published in Gynaika, Julien Friedler will even define the Boz as a modern myth.
