Artists at Année Zéro use AI as a creative tool to bring limitless universes to life, contributing to the emergence of entirely new aesthetics and artistic languages. The collective’s mission is to take AI out of screens and transform it into tangible and material works of art. Année Zéro offers a diverse range of works, ranging from numbered and artist-signed prints to sculptures, installations, narrative projects, and animated films.
The motto "Where ideas lead" underscores Année Zéro’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of creativity and innovation. The label engages in various creative disciplines, including pro- duction, print and video, creation, conception, architecture, design, edition, scenography, and installation.
Sébastien Drhey and Matthieu Mantovani, with their extensive experience in the fields of communication and photogra- phy, have embarked on this courageous adventure at a time when generative art is becoming a propulsive force in the artistic realm. Based in Paris, Année Zéro serves as a platform for artists from around the world, promoting a collaborative and cut- ting-edge approach at the intersection of artificial intelligence and traditional art.
