Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster is working on an immersive, supernatural and sensory environment to be inaugurated at the Serpentine Galleries in London in Spring 2022. The artist imagines a Sensodrome for the Serpentine. Will it be speculative and visual fiction? What if an astrobleme became a Sensodrome in the middle of Hyde Park in 2022? Is a Sensodrome a place to stimulate our somatosensory system – a maison de rendez-vous? – a meeting point? Is it a mutant place contributing to the invention of new technologies of consciousness? What if aliens were in love with us? Would it change our relation to our planet and its lifeforms?

Works by Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster and Tino Sehgal are part of the inaugural exhibition at the Parc des Ateliers, home of the LUMA Foundation in Arles (FR). The foundation aims to collapse the boundaries between art, culture, human rights and environmental issues. This Element by Sehgal was commissioned for the space, while Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster is presenting Endodrome, a virtual reality environment, shown at the Venice Biennale in 2019. The Library on Fire which is a new commission by Gonzalez-Foerster and Charles Arsène-Henry will be inaugurated in September. (Photo Adrian Deweerdt)

Saturday, October 3, 2020, from 7pm to 2am, Nuit Blanche is organised by the city of Paris, a contemporary creation in all its forms in public spaces, prestigious monuments and buildings that are little known or inaccessible in normal times. On this occasion, Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster will take over the peristyle of the Palais Galliera with a sound installation entitled Promenade. The installation invades the peristyle of the Palais Galliera and offers the spectator a very special immersion, in a sound jungle, under a tropical rain. This ephemeral work is part of the Nuit Blanche's Right Bank journey that weaves its way from the Petit Palais - Musée des Beaux-Arts de la Ville de Paris to the Musée d'Art Moderne de Paris, crossing the sound limbo, virtual wasps and temples of love in the gardens of the Champs-Élysées or New France, to the Palais Galliera and the esplanade and basin of the Palais de Tokyo.
