Félix Luque Sánchez's 'The Automatic Society' at LABoral
LABoral Centre for Art and Industrial Creation in Gijón, Spain, presents 'The Automatic Society,' an international exhibition by Asturian artist Félix Luque Sánchez. The show, created in collaboration with Iñigo Bilbao Lopategui, Damien Gernay, and Vincent Evrard, explores a post-human world through the lens of automation. Drawing on Jean Baudrillard's question about a world without humans, the exhibition examines the shift from Taylorism to contemporary artificial intelligence. Industrial robots, designed for repetitive tasks with precision, symbolize the utopia of automation that has moved from industrial production to shaping human thought. The exhibition is held at LABoral, a center dedicated to art and industrial creation.
