Pantopie & Métastabilité

Women – Art – Technology – Science #4.0
Wallonia-Brussels / France / Quebec

Founded in 2017 in Brussels by Stéphanie Pécourt, NOVA_XX is a biennial dedicated to innovation by women in technology, science and art at the dawn of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Since its second edition, the event has been organised by Centre Wallonie-Bruxelles in Paris and coordinated by Sara Anedda. It’s a natural companion to Biennale Némo in Paris and Le Générateur in Gentilly

This season at the Centre is Saison Fractale_Visions Parallaxes, a decidedly non-linear, turbulent theme that aims to draw strength from that which appears to be lacking—order and completeness—with programming structured around the heuristic value of disorder and the dynamics of chaos theory.

NOVA_XX is casting a wide net this year. In December, the biennial will open on three dates in three autonomous zones which will host a programme of sound installations, performances and a group show.

A preview on 4 December for the launch of NOVA # Sound at Lafayette Anticipations.
The opening of NOVA # Exhibition at Centre Wallonie-Bruxelles on 8 December.
The opening of NOVA # Performances at Le Générateur on 10 December

Exhibition curators:
Marie du Chastel – Programmer and curator of KIKK Festival – Le Pavillon Trakk
Alain Thibault – Director of Elektra (Montréal)
Dominique Moulon – Art critic and independent curator (Paris)
In collaboration with Evelyne Deret & Stéphanie Pécourt
