A symbol of freedom, of freedom from space-time barriers, but also of control and possession of “Nature”, the automobile participates in modes of production, relationships of domination and exploitation at the origin of the destruction of our ecosystems.

It is this modern heritage that the group exhibition addresses.” Autonomous Human: Mechanical Fossils ” by comparing the imaginaries and the realities of motor civilization. A fantasy machine, the automobile is here reinstated in forms of life, energy systems, energy systems, territorial arrangements, work organization, geopolitical strategies and the mobilities that it implies - those of a fossil capitalism that never ceases to survive itself.

Designed by curators Marianne Derrien, Sarah Ihler-Meyer and Salim Santa Lucia, this exhibition produced by La Condition Publique, is registered as a Resonance of the Euroregional Triennial “Art & Industry” of the Frac Grand Large Hauts-de-France (10.06.2023 - 14.01.2024). It is the second part of a cycle started with “Joyridin” at the Frac Normandie Caen in February 2023 and which will continue in 2024 at MacVal (Vitry-sur-Seine).
