Jean Jullien - Low Glow - Book

A sardonic look at the modern condition through the comedic and playful drawings of Jean Jullien. Born in Nantes, France (1983), Jullien studied at Central Saint Martins and the Royal College of Art. His instantly recognisable style—marked by bold lines, vibrant colours, and humour-infused social observation—has made him an international figure in contemporary visual culture. His practice spans painting, illustration, photography, video, costume, installation, and design, and he has exhibited widely across major global cities. His work often comments on modern life and human relationships, balancing irony and warmth.
