His 1956 piece \u003ci\u003eCYSP 1\u003c\/i\u003e is considered the first cybernetic sculpture, making use of motors, microphones, and photo-electric cells to create a work based on feedback loops and responsiveness to its environment. For Schöffer, cybernetics enabled a crucial artistic exploration of the boundary between the living and the technological. This important reevaluation of Schöffer's work features sculptures, paintings, and drawings, including unpublished pieces from the artist's studio and archive, as well as documentation of his interdisciplinary and experimental collaborations with architects, musicians, choreographers, scientists, and industrialists. Particular attention is paid to the innovative work he created between 1945 and 1975, which takes on particular resonance in our current, digitally saturated world. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDistributed for Mercatorfonds \u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExhibition Schedule: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLille Métropole Museum of Modern, Contemporary and Outsider Art\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e (02\/23\/18-05\/20\/18)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Arnauld Pierre,Sébastien Delot,Pauline Mari\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0300233248\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780300233247\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Mercatorfonds\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/15\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.80h x 9.70w x 0.90d","brand":"Arnauld Pierre","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48443330330879,"sku":"9780300233247","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_05c02c7d-7f0e-4141-ba60-f5ae30b05586.jpg?v=1777204787","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/nicolas-schziffer-arnauld-pierre-9780300233247","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
