Artist

Grégory Chatonsky is a Franco-Canadian artist and a pioneer of Net art (art created by, for, and with the internet) and Artificial Intelligence. He has been experimenting with AI since 2009, prior to a seminar at the École normale supérieure on the concept of Artificial Imagination.

His works evoke the limits of the human species, where the infinite memory of the Web and AI appears as an attempt to preserve the possibility of a future. Grégory Chatonsky’s practice explores the ambiguous relationships between technology and existence. Using both digital and traditional media, he develops a body of work in which language, the body, the city, extinction, networks, landscape, and memory weave together a fiction without narrative.

He has exhibited at the Palais de Tokyo, the Centre Pompidou, the MOCA Taipei, the Museum of the Moving Image, and the Hubei Wuhan Museum. His works are held in both private and public collections, including the CNAP, regional contemporary art funds (FAC), the Hubei Museum, and the Musée Granet.
