exhibition · 2026-04-23

Loris Gréaud subverts the conventional exhibition order—creation of works followed by their presentation—by staging a series of events in Paris (Palais de Tokyo, February 14–May 2008) and London (ICA). These events involve producing commercials, launching a candy brand, and performing an opera. The project requires a large production team and assistants to highlight the production process, demonstrating how post-conceptual art dissolves into the cultural entertainment industry.
