From March 23 until May 21, 2017, Romain Tardy exhibits his installations at the Bordeaux Submarine Base.
The co-founder of the famous label ANTIVJ presents his new exhibition “Nobody knew you’re a dog” as a caricature of the legendary cartoon of Peter Steiner published in The New Yorker Magazine on July 5, 1993. This caricature represented two dogs that discuss in front of a computer. At the time this caricature highlighted issues related to the massive use of Internet.
The artist offers a unique scenography where digital arts and sound arts blend. With an extensive experience in the art world, the artist likes to leave the conventional places to project his work in unusual places. At the underwater base, Romain Tardy offers a retrospective of his work since his beginnings in the 2000s. As an important artist of the new media art scene, all the pieces presented in the Submarine Base raise a reflection of the digital age, through a staging of the friction between digital immateriality and presence of the physical world.
His work “Pagan” using in particular video mappings technique and is conceived as a sensitive experiment in situ. Light is the medium that allows it to increase existing architectures or structures of its creation. It is with a totally immersive experience that Romain Tardy gives us his own reflection about the dematerialization of the world.
