Christa Sommerer & Laurent Mignonneau. The Artwork as a Living System | Artist Talk

[07.05.2022 – 31.07.2022]

The interactive installations in the exhibition tell the story of almost 30 years of artistic work by the Austrian-French artist duo Christa Sommerer and Laurent Mignonneau.

»Their works are technologically inventive, scientifically instructive, and artistically imaginative. As a result, visitors inside leave their works richer for aesthetic, ludic, and cognitive experiences and insights. Sommerer and Mignonneau's exhibition is more than a cabinet of curiosities, more than a terrarium, more than an aquarium; it shows mythical creatures, artificial creatures, a so far unseen panorama of imagination and technical ingenuity«. (Peter Weibel)

The exhibition is a co-production of ZKM | Karlsruhe, OÖ Landes-Kultur GmbH, Linz and iMal, Brussels. The exhibition is accompanied by a scholarly publication in English edited by Karin Ohlenschläger, Peter Weibel and Alfred Weidinger in the Leonardo Book Series in collaboration with MIT Press.
