Very charming animals HUMANS - Augustin Rebetez

CHF 36 - Add to cart

Augustin Rebetez has always been fascinated by teeth, mouths and jaws, no doubt because that's where the cries of revolutions come from.

In the work “Very charming animals - HUMANS”, he explores artificial intelligence and manipulates algorithmically-generated portraits, creating fictitious human beings who he then subjects to bloody artistic surgery with Photoshop.

Which is more monstrous, the artificial intelligence or the artist's stupid, manual labor?

Halfway between reality and fiction, digital and DIY, creepy and darkly humorous, Bruce Gilden and Cindy Sherman, these portraits show an unhealthy, polluted humanity reduced to just another animal.

Funny, powerful and hard-hitting, this work is highlighted in an elegant book with radical graphics that reinforce the darkness, brutality and strength of this series of images.

Produced with the support of the Friends of Espace Courant d'art in Chevenez and Pro Helvetia.
