Jean-François Staszak

Jean-François Staszak is a professor in the Department of Geography at the University of Geneva. His recent publications focus on the question of otherness, exoticism in particular, which he examines in the light of gender and postcolonial studies, particularly in the fields of tourism and visual culture. From this perspective, he worked on painting, photography, dance and cinema, but also on borders and orientalist architectural dispositives.
  • Voyage Voyage, music as a vehicle

    • Jean-François Staszak

    Voyage Voyage (Desireless, 1987) functions performatively: it's less about convincing the listeners to explore the world one day than about allowing them to take a virtual journey with the singer, one that lasts the duration of the song.
