In a space remodelled for each occasion, the Institute schedules four exhibition periods per year. These consist of several novel projects.
The solo exhibition is the closest to the artist and his work and is a basic principle of events at the Institute (2006: Anthony McCall, Allen Ruppersberg; 2007: Frangois CurIet, Jef Geys; 2009: Laurent Montaron; 2010 : Michel François, Matt Mullican; 2011: Hans Schabus, Joachim Koester; 2012: Berdaguer & Péjus, Bojan Šarčević; 2013: Saâdane Afif, Manfred Pernice; 2014: Thomas Bayrle, Guillaume Leblon; 2016: Jason Dodge; 2017: Ann Veronica Janssens; Maria Loboda ; 2018: Katinka Bock ; 2019: Daniel Steegmann Mangrané; 2021: Apichatpong Weerasethakul...).
Group and theme exhibitions focus on the issues of creative art today; these are more experimental and occasional (2008: Fabricateurs d’espaces; 2011: Yes, We Don't, 2013: 1966-79; 2015: RIDEAUX / blinds; Otium #1 - De Mineralis, Pierres de vision & Kata Tjuta; Otium #2 - Tomorrow in the Battle Think on Me & Collection 15; 2016: Le Temps de l'audace et de l'engagement; 2018: OTIUM#3 - Jean-Marie Perdrix, Linda Sanchez, Dane Mitchell; 2019: OTIUM #4 - Leone Contini, Maria Laet, Kate Newby; 2022: La Fabrique du Nous #1 / Quels Territoires ?...).

Les échos du silence / Echoes of Silence
CHANG Yung-Ta
from to
IAC Villeurbanne
For his first solo exhibition in europe, CHANG Yung-Ta invites us to discover the hidden frequencies of reality.
Like a meditative walk, Echoes of Silence offers a contemplative experience of the variations that, though subtle, shape our environment. Measuring tools as much as works of art, CHANG Yung-Ta’s installations use technology to transform data from natural phenomena into sound and visual compositions.
The exhibition marks a key moment in the artist’s trajectory, offering a perspective on a practice inherently shaped by randomness and accident. By embracing entropy as a mode of composition, CHANG Yung-Ta allows us to reflect on the invisible and on the use of technology as both a tool for knowledge and a means of creation.

Dernier avertissement / Last Warning
LI Yi-Fan
from to
IAC Villeurbanne
The Institute of Contemporary Art hosts the first solo exhibition in europe of LI Yi-Fan, a rising figure in the taiwanese contemporary scene who was recently chosen to represent Taiwan at the 2026 Venice Biennale.
The project brings together the artist’s latest video installations, whose production is based on a principle of radical DIY by adapting game engines to his needs, LI Yi-Fan develops his works through a constant experimentation with machines, making each project a long and meticulous process. Last Warning thus marks a milestone, offering both a glimpse into a practice in perpetual evolution – always ahead of its own obsolescence – and a reflection on our relationship with the virtual, caught between fascination, saturation, and disorientation.
