Des raisonnements déraisonnables

The exhibition "Unreasonable Reasoning" examines language systems as structures of power and regulation of human behavior. Julien Prévieux explores this question through two fields of application: spatial activities on the one hand, and artificial intelligence on the other.

The exhibition presents a selection of the artist's seminal works as well as a collection of new creations, produced specifically for the exhibition. These latter works, focusing on the malfunctions and invisible processes of artificial intelligence, pay particular attention to the hallucinations produced by AI.

The common thread running through all the works is a questioning of the control of machines, their possible flaws, and the absurdity generated by this profusion of digital languages.

# Julien Prévieux
A key figure in the contemporary art scene (winner of the 2014 Marcel Duchamp Prize), Julien Prévieux champions a multidisciplinary practice driven by a playful vision of social critique. His work is regularly exhibited in art centers and museums, both in France and abroad, and is prominently featured in public and private collections.

As a keen observer of the contemporary world and our behaviors, the artist is particularly interested in the impact of technological revolutions on our societies and their hold on individual and collective bodies. His practice intersects visual arts, performance, computer science, artificial intelligence, and choreography.

Free and free entry, without reservation.

Guided tours on Wednesdays and Saturdays at 16:30 pm.

Jeudi 28 mai 19h Rencontre avec Julien Prévieux
Julien Prévieux is a French artist, a Knight of the Order of Arts and Letters, winner of the Marcel Duchamp Prize in 2014, and exhibited internationally. His artistic practice focuses on the themes of economics, politics, cutting-edge technologies, and the cultural industry. A keen observer of individual and collective behavior, the artist casts a critical yet humorous eye on society. In various forms—videos, sculptures, installations, performances, and drawings—his works appropriate the mechanisms of the sectors they explore in order to expose their dogmas and excesses.
