Post Natural History by Vincent Fournier
Opening Brussels-based Spazio Nobile gallery next week, French artist Vincent Fournier will present his Post Natural History project – a visual and object-based investigation of synthetics biology. Such an exploration of cybernetics sheds light on our relationship to nature and technology. As contemporary cabinet of curiosities, the showcase will run through a large universe linking photography with 3D application. Fournier’s works are poetic and meticulous, freely nurtured by cinematographic and literary inspirations. Fascinated by science, architecture, technology and its mysteries, his installations explore all fictional potential. his first exhibition is particularly representative of the universe that Spazio Nobile aims to present. Reinforced with iconographic references and documents, it includes a significant narrative dimension as well as a prospective vision, questioning the passing of time, the values of authenticity and the transmission of knowledge, materiality and the invisible. Post Natural History is an exhibition completely in line with the gallery’s positioning, a search for meaning and a link between the past and future.
