Kader Attia - Descent into Paradise
Kader Attia is one of the most prominent French artists on the international scene. Born in 1970 in Seine-Saint-Denis, he grew up in a multicultural and cosmopolitan atmosphere in the Paris outskirts. His childhood was shaped by the many trips he made back and forth between France and Algeria, from which his family originates.

Exhibition Catalogue Kader Attia. Descente au paradis, presented at MO.CO., Montpellier (22 june - 22 september 2024).
Kader Attia has forged a body of work that cannot be confined to a single medium and yet is characterized by its own distinctive visual vocabulary. Using drawing, photography, video, sculpture, and installation to suit each individual project, he investigates contemporary society, giving great prominence to poetry and inference, and by focusing on precarious settings, fears, traumas, uprootedness, and hopes for repair. Travel also plays an important role in his history and in his work, invoking marginalised cultures as well as individual destinies.
Alongside some of the artist's major works, the catalogue features a number of new artworks, including a brand-new immersive installation consisting of a film shot in northern Thailand and a rainstick installation created for MO.CO.
