ALICE ANDERSON | CENTRE POMPIDOU: GROUP EXHIBITION

23 February - 25 April 2022 

Alice Anderson presented her work Internet Cables in the Worlds of Networks group exhibition curated by Marie-Ange Brayer and Olivier Zeitoun at the Centre Pompidou. 

 

Has everything today become a network? From the birth of the information society in the postwar years, to the ubiquity of the global network with the Internet, the network is weaving its web everywhere, in space and time. At the heart of societal issues and artistic changes, it continues to multiply. At a time of environmental crisis, the first network is also that of living things, where humans give themselves in coexistence with other species. Around a hundred works, from the 1940s to the present day, are exhibited here, including several especially designed for the exhibition: some reactivate missing networks, such as the "Minitel" device, while others are connected in real time to the Internet, cryptocurrency networks, as well as social media platforms, such as Twitter.
