Biography
Biography
He spent his childhood in Arsenal County, a period that will strongly mark his artistic work. However, his encounters and successive travels took him to new horizons and far from his homeland: during the 1970s, his career became international. Granger is known for his work associated with the musician Jean-Michel Jarre, and particularly with the work Oxygene, depicting a delaminated earth with a semi-exposed skull.
