From 21 May to 5 July 2025

Opening on 22 May 2025 from 6.00 pm

The Soleil cou coupé exhibition invites us to examine the potential and challenges of technological advances in artificial intelligence. The title of the exhibition is a tribute to the poets Apollinaire and Césaire: language is the thread that runs through the interpretation of the works. In the age of AI, the exhibition is intended to be the starting point for a reflection on the evolution of artistic creation. Through a range of works, some of which have been produced at a very high level of technical sophistication, but whose sophistication is not immediately apparent to the viewer, the artists question the role of the author in machine-assisted creation, the capacity of the individual to resist standardisation, and the balance between technological progress and the preservation of our ecosystem’s resources.
