Gregory
Chatonsky

Grégory Chatonsky (b. 1971, Paris) is a French-Canadian digital artist and philosopher whose work uses interactive installations, intelligent devices, photography and sculpture. He explores topics such as "artificial imagination", "disnovation", the concept of flows, the aesthetics of incidents, and digital in the collective memory. In the mid-1990s, he was a pioneering net artist, working on the web and its affectivity; in the context of a probable extinction of the human species, the net is seen as an attempt to create a monument that would live after us. Chatonsky has been exhibited worldwide (Palais de Tokyo, Centre Pompidou and Jeu de Paume in Paris, Museum of Moving Image in New York, and MOCA Taipei). He is artist-researcher at École Normale Supérieure de Paris. Group shows include The Whole Earth 2045, re:future lab, Berlin (2021) with a video work and prints—Memories Center: The Dreaming Machine; e-phemeral skin.
