Anne Le Troter (1985) is an artist based in Paris. It was after writing two books L’encyclopédie de la matière and Claire, Anne, Laurence that she began to work cyclically on the way specific groups began to express themselves, by cumulating exhibitions, (often sound plays) that went on to become written works. Anne Le Troter thus invites groups of people, like ASMR artists to work with her (L’appétence, sound play, 2016 Salon de Montrouge and Palais de Tokyo Prize). After working on a form of commercialisation of speech—in a cycle of sound installations focusing on the figure of the telephone surveyor, a cycle spread over two solo and one group exhibition (Les mitoyennes at La BF15 in Lyon in 2015, Liste à puces at the Palais de Tokyo in 2017 and Les silences après une question at the Institut d’Art Contemporain in Villeurbanne in 2017) – today Anne Le Troter’s work tends more towards the anticipation genre. Exhibited at the Pernod Ricard Foundation, the Rennes Biennial, Le Grand Café contemporary art centre in Saint Nazaire, the Nasher Sculpture Center in Dallas and the Centre Pompidou, the artist has begun a new writing cycle around the idea of biography, fiction and utopia. In 2019, she was awarded the Villa Kujoyama Prize in Kyoto, in 2021 the Mondes Nouveaux grant as well as the ADAGP– Bétonsalon research grant in association with the Bibliothèque Kandinsky, Centre Pompidou. After the exhibition Les Volontaires, pigments-médicaments at Bétonsalon, in 2022 her work has been shown at the Institut d’art contemporain in Villeurbanne and at Ygrec in Aubervilliers.
