Révolutions Xenakis
On celebration of the 100th anniversary of Iannis Xenakis' birth, the Philharmonie de Paris honors one of the most prolific artists of the second half of the 20th century.
A composer, architect, engineer, and mathematics and computer enthusiast, Xenakis was a pioneer in a number of domains, including electroacoustic music, computer music, and immersive electronic concerts. His light and sound shows have conquered a large audience and the energy of his catalog, which includes nearly 150 works, has never wavered. The exhibition invites the visitor to the heart of the artist's studio and offers an immersive experience in the image of his total art shows that made him one of the founding fathers of digital art.
Curators Mâkhi Xenakis and Thierry Maniguet
