Biography
After studying anthropology, Valérie Jouve began pursuing a career as a photographer. Her work refers as much to contemporary art as it does to the fields of anthropology, sociology, and reporting. By photographing "played" or "performed" images, she revels the daily theatrical aspects of contemporary society.
Valérie Jouve has exhibited her photography since 1995, notably at the galerie Anne de Villepoix. In September 2006, she had her first exhibition at the Galerie Xippas in Paris. Her exhibition En attente was presented at the Centre Georges Pompidou in 2010.
As a fim director, she made her first movie, Grand Littoral, in 2003, which won the Prix Georges de Beauregard National at the Marseille Festival of Documentary Film. In 2006, she directed Le temps travaille and Time is Working around Rotterdam.
She received the prix Niépce in 2013. She was named a knight of the Ordre des Arts et des Lettres in 2011.
