Curated by François Piron
The exhibition Incorporated! gathers crossgenerational, renowned and emerging artists in twelve venues in Rennes and in Brittany. Conceived by François Piron, its title borrows from economics.
What are the consequences of our incorporation into our economic world ?
Incorporated! focuses on the affects provoked by our prolonged submission to the ideologies and the technologies governed by the economics. The dissolution of borders between the public and the private, the singular and the common; feelings of helplessness and dispossession: these are all examples of the concerns reflected in the artworks gathered in the biennale. Incorporated! aims at reconsidering the emancipatory forces that lie in the negation, the opacity, the resistance exerted by these artworks.
The exhibition will present numerous new productions and important ensembles specially commissioned for the biennale.
