Nicolas Darrot. Fuzzy Logic
Museum Tinguely, Basel: 5. March 2026 – 7 March 20227

Programme of the opening No. 1/5: Nicolas Darrot ( above) and the curator Andres Pardey will speak on the subject of fuzzy logic. The presentation will start at 6:30 pm and will be conducted in English (30 minutes). The French artist Nicolas Darrot is renowned for his robotic puppets, automata, and mechanical figures that operate at the intersection of theatre, technology, and the fantastical. Visitors can activate the performances of these kinetic figures themselves by scanning a barcode on costum-designed playing cards, whereupon the figure comes to life, singing, dancing and moving according to its own fuzzy logic. Each of the five figures will be inaugurated with an opening and accompanying programme. Personalities from Nicolas Darrot's circle are invited to engage in dialogue with the artist and his works. The subsequent openings will take place as follows: 2/5 07.05.2026, 6:30 pm: Bone Machine, 2026 Thierry Dufrêne: Les automates de Nicolas Darrot (Talk in French, 30 min) 3/5 06.08.2026, 6:30 pm: Shaman, 2026 Summer Special with DJ Nicolas Darrot 4/5 05.11.2026, 6:30 pm: Le petit clown, 2025 « Corps nouveaux » : lecture by Marguerite Pilven (in French, 30 min) 5/5 07.01.2027, 6:30 pm: Yuki Otoko, 2025 Conférence-performance of Jean-Yves Jouannais (in French, 30 min) We are pleased to celebrate with you the first opening of the Theatre of Automatons at Museum Tinguely. The artist and the curator will both be available for questions and interviews before and after the opening. #artmuseumtinguely,#nicolasdarrotartists#fineartmagazineblog.blogspot#sunstormfineartmagazine
