Purple emerged alongside a new generation of French artists, including Pierre Joseph, Philippe Parreno, Bernard Joisten, Pierre Huyghe, and Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster, who often worked together on collaborative projects. Dominique played a key role in the beginning of Purple, helping us to conceive a magazine by, for, and about artists, and also curating shows.

In this interview, she talks about the origins of Purple and the shows we organized together, including “June” (1993), “Winter of Love” (1994), and “Elysian Fields” (2000), as well as the evolution of her prolific work, from installations to music, films, and performances.
