Produced on the occasion of the exhibition Ellipsis, featuring Chantal Akerman, Lili Dujourie and Francesca Woodman, curated by Lynne Cooke, at Lunds Konsthall, Sweden; Museo Tamayo Arte Contempor´neo, Mexico & Dundee Contemporary Arts, Dundee, between 2007-08.

“Although born ten years apart and in very different circumstances, the three artists featured in this exhibition each profited from the turn to still photography, and other lens-based technologies – film, slide projection and the newer medium of video that dominated vanguard art practice in the late 1960s. Taking themselves, their bodies and their immediate circumstances as their point of departure, during the 1970s all three made performative work for the camera. Tellingly, the sites they favoured were mostly their own studios or domestic interiors.” Lynne Cooke

Produced on the occasion of the restoration of Lili Dujourie’s video works by Argos Editions, Brussels in 2002.

“Lili Dujourie made her videos in complete solitude, without a cameraman or a technical entourage. She saw on a monitor what the camera recorded of her from a fixed viewpoint. Her videos were never edited ‘extenuatingly’ afterwards; the video had to deliver the desired image or the work was destroyed. The vulnerability of the making of videos is comparable to the technique of the aquarelle—the touch should show great precision, otherwise the work fails. Mirrors, a mantelpiece, a window, slightly reflecting because of the entering light, a bed with white sheeting: familiar, yet as regards to content strongly layered encompassing ‘signs’ within which Lili Dujourie moved about in a suite of punctual movements, heightened with erotic suggestions and connotations. Time is being lived (in) in these videos—they reflect a conscious undergoing in the spectator of slow actions without finality”—Luk Lambrecht

Produced on the occasion of simultaneous exhibition Lili Dujourie: Folds in time at Mu.ZEE, Ostend, and at SMAK, Ghent, 6 June–4 October 2015.

The work by Flemish artist, Lili Dujourie unfolds out of the gap between painting and sculpture. After making debut with steel and colour objects in the late 1960s, Dujourie’s practice shifted into photography and video in the 1970s.

As well as exploring the blurring between art disciplines, in these new media she also raised gender-and identity-related issues prevalent at that time. The duality of movement and standstill inherent to film has fed the artist’s three-dimensional work from the 1980s to the present.

Produced on the occasion of the exhibition Lili Dujourie at Bonner Kunstverein, 8 December, 1989–11 February, 1990; Centre National d’Art Contemporain–Magasin, Grenoble, 13 May–24 June, 1990 and daadgalerie, Berlin, September–October, 1990.

The work of Lili Dujourie provokes an astutely intellectual yet poetic engagement with the world around us through various mediums, from painting and sculpture, to photography, collage, video and installation. Dujourie operates at the intersection of minimalism and conceptualism, consistently and systematically challenging the subject position of the viewer through clever experimentation with material and form.
