The exhibition is curated by Corinne Charpentier

In times when economy rules supreme, normalisation is all the rage. The firm is an essential entity; its languages, communication modes, processes, means of perceiving the individual and its creative ideal have largely influenced the human mind. Work terminology consistently invades the everyday life of the ordinary citizen, expanding well beyond its original context. Corporate languages and their by-products – whether visual, textual or behavioural – thus display a kind of common ground, a shared oppression, and form an actual popular culture. Between recycling, omission and mimicry, Corporate Everything invites us to investigate how artistic production and artists exploit the question or dissociate themselves from it.
