Recycle Group
Expired Reality
Recycle Group, 2023 Triptyque, grillage plastique thermoformé
The artist duo Recycle Group, created in 2006, is composed of Andrey Blokhin (born 1987 in Krasnodar, Russia) & Georgy Kuznetsov (born 1985 in Stavropol, Russia). They live and work in Paris.
Their work is focused on using recycled materials and finding them a new purpose to interrogate our future. This new exhibition describes our reality under the current transformations of technology and society through their artistic vision.
Nowadays, humans are living in two realities.
What is the base for the future considering that Artificial intelligence will rule our processes? Recently working on the project about an imagined open-code algorithm, Sapient artists transferred to it the rights to combine the will of the living and the infinite to offer a transparent democracy and explore how technology could improve political fault lines. Expired reality project delivers a vision of the current world that is in the process of transition to a new round of evolution, when matter dissolves and passes into a new stage of existence. This project includes works that were created by artists using Ai to represent the vision of the future coexistence and asks a question of the imminent possibility of machine replacing man.
Starting with the forest of expired links where all the plants from recycled plastic with a relief of the expired internet links are transforming from virtual existence to real.
Artists are bringing the visitor into the landscape of the Null island where the physical existence from the machine point of view starts.
Bodyless mesh sculptures are referring to the absence of physical body of the reality inside. Plastic film structure shows the shapes of the humans like blisters from the product without the product itself. Lightboxes generated with Ai transforming the way of creation changing it to a new condition.
Exhibition from May 13 to 24, 2023.
The gallery
After running for 25 years a gallery outside of Paris in Barbizon, Suzanne Tarasieve opened her first space in Paris in 2003, in the Louise Weiss neighborhood. In 2008, she opened a second space, LOFT 18, offering temporary exhibition and a residency program in order to support artists from abroad.
In 2011, Suzanne Tarasieve moved her main gallery space to Le Marais, showing established and emerging artists, with an international exhibition program underlining the great historical transformations of the XXth and XXIst century. The program is developed in collaboration with museums, art centers and curators. The synergy between LOFT 19 and the space in Le Marais allows Suzanne Tarasieve to produce and exhibit works spawning from german neo-expressionism (Markus Lüpertz, Georg Baselitz, A. R. Penck, Jörg Immendorff, Sigmar Polke), to recent works by young artists. The gallery also represents three renowned photographers : Boris Mikhaïlov, Juergen Teller and Jürgen Klauke. After the passing of Suzanne Tarasieve in December 2022, the gallery is taken over by her four employees who perpetuate the work of the now legendary founder.
