Shimkent hôtel (2003), Death of Glory (2006) and You should be the next Astronaut, all three included in the piece titled Warning to the spectator, were shown at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York in 2009.

In 1997 in order to produce his first film, Le pont du Trieur (co-written with Philippe Parreno), he founded the production company Anna Sanders Films, with Philippe Parreno, Pierre Huyghe, Xavier Douroux and Franck Gautherot (both from the Consortium de Dijon), and then Dominique Gonzales-Foerster.
