ORLAN

ORLAN is one of the greatest internationally recognized French artists.

“I AM ORLAN, AMONG OTHERS AND TO THE EXTENT POSSIBLE. MY NAME IS WRITTEN EACH LETTER IN CAPITAL BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO BE GIVEN INTO THE RANKS, I DON'T WANT TO BE GIVEN INTO THE LINE”

DETAILS

She is not tied to any material, technology or artistic practice. She uses sculpture, photography, performance, video, 3D, video games, augmented reality, artificial intelligence and robotics (she has created a robot in her image that speaks with her voice) as well as scientific and medical techniques such as surgery and biotechnologies... to question with a critical distance the social phenomena of our time. ORLAN created the magazine Art-Accès Revue on minitel. ORLAN founded and organized the Lyon International Performance and Video Symposium. ORLAN constantly and radically changes the data, disrupting conventions and ready-to-think. She opposes natural, social and political determinism, all forms of domination, male supremacy, religion, cultural segregation, racism... Always mixed with humor, sometimes parody or even grotesque, her work questions social phenomena and upsets pre-established codes.
