Digital art sometimes carries a form of nostalgia for traditional art. Artists thus seek to reconcile the masterpieces of history with the tools of our time, always pushing further the limits of creation. Unveiling new horizons, they urge us to rediscover ancient art in unusual ways, thanks to 3D scans or models which pay tribute to the statues of mythological or real characters. In a fusion between ancient and digital art, travel through eras and artistic styles.

Throughout history and across mediums, artists have employed light to enhance the emotional resonance and visual impact of their works. Sculptures rely on light and shadows to define and accentuate their form. Renaissance chiaroscuro sees painters exaggerating contrasts in light to convey emotion and drama. Light is even used as a symbol of divinity, be it through painted rays or the actual reflection of light on metallic surfaces.

The development of digital technologies has engendered a new relationship to light: when the opaque canvas is substituted for the lit-up screen, light becomes the very medium artists work with. No longer is it anchored to a physical source or limited by the laws of physics. The artists in this collection explore the seemingly endless possibilities of this new medium, creating innovative compositions that were inconceivable before the digital age.

The vigor of youth is characterized by an insatiable curiosity, an unyielding spirit, and an unwavering passion for exploration. Young souls pulsate toward boundless possibilities The dynamic nature of youth manifests in the eagerness to embrace challenges, the resilience to bounce back from setbacks, and the relentless drive to carve out unique paths in the world. It is a time of exuberance where enthusiasm knows no bounds. Youth, in its essence, is a dynamic force, a kaleidoscope of vibrant aspirations, and a testament to the ceaseless vitality that defines the journey of growth and self-discovery.

What does music look like? Although many artists throughout the history of art have drawn directly from this intangible creative expression to create their works, capturing the sentimental and rhythmic notions of music is a challenge. Digital art offers a unique opportunity to rectify this dilemma, as artists incorporate the sound waves and decibels of music directly into the code they use to create generative artworks. Elsewhere, artists are taking the creative spirit of music and rendering it directly into figurative works, conveying the emotional magic that music can create.

Biomimetics is the study and invention of synthetic materials or objects that take inspiration from natural (or biological) forms and movements. Today, this approach is widely used in design. In this selection, our digital artists, who often come from deisgn backgrounds and are heavily inspired by the world around them, also demonstrate an interest in biomimetics. Whether the artist takes inspiration from real-life flora and fauna to imagine a cyborg flower, digitise nature as a form of archiving and remembrance, or embed cities and gardens into rock formations, this body of work demonstrates the relationships between biological and natural forms, and technological innovation in art.

In this fast-paced collection, artists embark on a vibrant exploration of the intersection between the dynamics of human movement and the magic of the digital. Sport not only nourishes our physical well-being, but also plays a crucial role in our mental health, pushing us to express ourselves through our bodies, redoubling our efforts and perseverance. Sport is omnipresent in our lives, whether it is a personal practice or a collective culture. It is therefore not surprising that artists take hold of this subject, capturing the spirit of sport through their creations. As a true vector of emotion, sport brings us together through major events and tournaments, inspiring us to unity in competition. Each artist uses the power of the digital to represent the spirit of sport in their own way in creations and breathe life into the digital.

This collection brings together artworks that explore how birds, symbols of freedom, communication, and fragility, are reimagined in the digital age. From colorful and lifelike renderings of plumage to abstract interpretations of flight, the collection highlights how technology reshapes our perception of nature’s most dynamic creatures.

Birds have long captured the human imagination as symbols of freedom, movement, and the boundless urge to explore new horizons. In this spirit, Digital Aviary extends that legacy into the present, where digital artists use technology to reimagine these living creatures.

The still life, used throughout centuries in art history as a key genre, comes to life through the imagination and tools of digital artists. Through techniques such as 3D, video, mapping, slit scan, photogrammetry and more, this ubiquitous genre of art takes on a new meaning as the 'still life' is animated and rejuvenated through digital art. In these works, the viewer is able to look deeply at each object on display, take pleasure in the attention to detail of our artists, and allow the soothing scenes to beautify their day.

This collection highlights France’s cultural and architectural heritage, in resonance with the European Heritage Days. Artists, sculptures, gardens, and historic monuments become the anchors of works that reinterpret our shared memory.

Artists approach heritage in many forms: reimagined architecture, landscapes shaped by history, sculptural details, and even a culinary evocations. Each work carries within it the imprint of a craft, an era, or a place that contributes to French identity.

Through these visions, heritage becomes material for contemporary creation. It is not only about contemplating the relics of the past, but about revealing their presence today and their power to inspire the imagination of contemporary artists.

Data is the language of computers, the starting point of many computational process. Through algorithms and programs, it transforms into a symphony of zeros and ones. To the untrained eye, it is an invisible and mysterious object, hidden behind complex user interfaces. The artists in this collection reveal the behind-the-scenes of digital art by creating a meta-work where the tool merges with the artwork itself, thus transforming abstractions into tangible representations. Thanks to their vision, data comes to life and metamorphoses into true works of art.

In ancient times, the Greeks revered fire as a divine element and had the tradition of maintaining a perpetually burning fire in front of significant temples. It was the case at the sanctuary of Olympia, where the Ancient Olympic Games unfolded. A Flame continuously flickered on the altar dedicated to the goddess Hestia, while fires were also kindled on the altars of Zeus and Hera. In the present day, the purity of the Olympic Flame in modern Games is upheld. It continues to embody the ideal of peace and unity among nations and serves as a herald for the forthcoming Games.

Although digital and innovation are often associated, in a specific artistic approach, some artists rethink the codes of ‘traditional’ media to propose creations blurring the borders between fashionable and vintage. In a resolutely vintage aesthetic, reminiscent of newspapers and magazines of the last century, artists adopt digital media to bring archives back to life, upgraded with a modern touch, transforming traditional collages into 3.0 creations.

The miracle of science unfolds as a testament to human curiosity, ingenuity, and perseverance. Through the pursuit of knowledge and understanding, scientists unravel the intricate workings of nature.

The Tom Wesselmann exhibition presented in winter 2024-2025 at the Fondation Louis Vuitton celebrates pop art, the emblematic movement of the 1960s inseparable from American visual culture. Rejecting traditional art conventions, pop art has redefined the boundaries of creation by making art inseparable from everyday life, integrating industrial techniques, prefabricated materials and mass-market objects. Through figures like Andy Warhol and his Campbell’s Soups or Roy Lichtenstein and his vibrant color comics, this artistic movement has questioned the status of the work of art while capturing the spirit of its time.
This matter of the nature of the work of art remains central today, especially through digital art, which pushes the limits of creative processes thanks to new technologies. So it’s no surprise that digital art is taking on the legacy of pop art, adopting often joyful, sometimes repetitive shapes, colors and patterns, while drawing inspiration from the visual codes of mass distribution or everyday objects. But, like pop art, behind an apparent lightness, these works also question deeper issues, such as our relationship to overconsumption or the omnipresence of technologies in our lives.
Thus, pop art and digital art dialogue through the decades, helping us to reinvent our view of the contemporary world.

The celebration of diversity—be it ethnic, cultural, identity-based, or related to physical and mental abilities—is increasingly recognized and highlighted in the media. This concept inspires artists to present new, original, and creative imagery while conveying a powerful message: our differences are beautiful and they unite us.

Digital art has often been confined to a niche in the international art world. In this collection, digital artists take inspiration from art history, either by re-interpreting renaissance and classical masterpieces, or by reimagining what the white cube gallery space could look like in a digital era. In so doing, digital artists reinterpret how we construct and read art history, but also stake their place in the canon of art.

The art of sculpture is above all a history of techniques. Modelling, cutting, casting, drawing, depending on how the earth, metal, wood or stone is worked...
But by practising sculpture in a virtual space, artists open up a new world of possibilities. Both the material and the techniques used to do so are freed from the prosaic considerations of reality: gravity, temperature, fragility... and give free rein to their imagination to create impossible statues with strange properties, such as malleability.
However, digital sculpting is not as radical a break with the history of sculpture as one might think: on the contrary, we observe among many digital sculptors a renewed interest for its past and especially for ancient sculpture, which continues inspire artists over centuries.

This collection unfolds around sparks of light — glimmers, reflections, and flashes — that transform perception and transfigure the ordinary. From glitter accentuating a detail to the shimmering surface of water at sunset, from suspended confetti to the dazzling play of diamonds, each work toys with the illusion of a world where light becomes substance.

Between magic and reality, these sparkles evoke both the wonder of fireworks and the fragility of memory, as if each reflection carried within it a fragment of a dream. Echoing Baudelaire’s “fugitive sparks” or Proust’s luminous visions, brilliance is never mere ornament: it is a total sensory experience.

Here, light does more than dazzle — it guides the eye toward the extraordinary, reminding us that within every shimmer lies a gateway to the imagination.

At the beginning of September, the air slowly becomes cooler and the cities start to come alive again with those quietly returning from vacation. It's back to school. And yet, many of us want to hang on to the last vestiges of summer, the soothing ripples of the sea air, the warm breath of a tropical breeze, a cocktail in hand. With this selection of digital artworks, the viewer can be swept away into an eternal summer, reliving their best memories of a time when there was no need to worry.

It’s undeniable: blockchain technology and NFTs have built, for the first time, a viable market for digital art, providing scarcity and value to digital artworks that are otherwise replicable. Associating digital art to NFTs has resulted in ‘Web3’, the next generation of the internet where what we consume online can not only be read and interacted with, but also owned in a decentralised fashion on the blockchain. Web3 has resulted in a unique subculture on the internet that values freedom, decentralisation and a close-knit community. However, NFTs and cryptocurrencies are also notorious for innumerable scams and pyramid schemes. Digital artists don’t shy away from these two extremities. In fact, in their work, they explore all the various and contradicting facets of Web3, using it as primary subject matter to envision promising futures for a more equitable internet and society on the one hand, or a dystopian futuristic work where greed has corruption reign on the other.

This collection invites you to enter a poetic world of delicate, soothing hues and nuances. Each work allows you to savor the subtlety of gradations and textures. In the world of Pastel, softness reigns supreme.

The link between cinema and digital art is a fascinating interplay, as shown in this selection of artworks. Both mediums share a common goal of artistic expression, storytelling, and the exploration of human emotions. In the early days of cinema, filmmakers drew inspiration from the visual aesthetics of everyday life, incorporating elements of composition, color, and symbolism into their work like contemporary artists still do today. Contemporary filmmakers often collaborate with visual artists, merging their talents to produce visually stunning and conceptually rich films. These connections between both disciplines remains a dynamic relationship, where each medium continues to inspire and inform the other.

In this selection of works, artists show us the future that awaits us if we don't do anything to stop the climate change. Droughts, fires, floods, melting ice caps....these artworks are here to remind us that our actions have consequences and that we can't continue to live like we do. Employing digital tools, artists are able to immerse us in visions that are actually not far from a probable future. With their unlimited imagination, they teach us to take care of our environment and to look after what surround us, in order for our planet to thrive for many generations to come.

In this collection of works, artists take the themes of wild life and animals as their central focus, but explore this subject matter with differing techniques and approaches. There are mulitude of ways an artist can approach this topic, whether it is through humour and whimsy, as in the works of Gavin Shapiro or Ghost, or to address centuries old astrological symbols. Of course, the question of the preservation of endangered wild life and the environment also often comes into play, as digital artists create these works as a message and reminder to look after other living species around us, and concretise their memory on the internet or blockchain.

This selection of artworks demonstrates how digital artists treat the topics of history and heritage in different ways, utilising diverse techniques to achieve their intended messages. An overarching interrogation point for many of these artists is: how can history be reconsidered, reappropriated, or rewritten through the biais of new technologies?

For artists such as the French collective Obvious, or Japanese artist Saeko Ehara, for example, using AI technology is a means to revisit the past and reinterpret it through visual co-creations with the machine. Elsewhere, Joelle McTigue creates abstracted works based on her own photography of various architectural and botanical subject matter where she lives in Montenegro, and in so doing recounts the economic, political and colonial histories of this location. Other artists such as Marine Bléhaut or Rafafans utilise video or animated collage from historical film archives or artworks to provide a contemporary spin on old source material, touching upon themes of memory, nostalgia, or timelessness.

Childhood is a recurring theme in art, serving as a canvas that captures the essence of innocence, wonder, and the fleeting nature of youth. Artists presented in this collection have sought to immortalize the magic of childhood through their creations, using various digital tools to evoke a sense of nostalgia and introspection. Childhood in art often becomes a symbol of untarnished potential, a time when imagination knows no bounds and the world is a vast playground of discovery. Whether portrayed through idyllic landscapes, cartoon characters or childish objects, the theme of childhood serves as a universal reminder of the precious, transient nature of youth, inviting viewers to reflect on their own journey from innocence to experience.

That time of year when yellow leaves, or few, or none at all, hang delicately on branches, painting the world in the warm hues of a sunset. These fleeting moments of autumn touch our hearts with their beauty and quiet reflection. The artists in this collection share a deep connection to this season, finding inspiration in the vibrant shades of orange, the gentle descent of falling leaves, and the bittersweet nostalgia that comes as summer fades. As nature embraces the art of metamorphosis this season, Echoes of Fall gently leads us to reflect on the quiet passage of time. Between what slips away and what awaits, it invites us to refresh our perspective, seeing each change as a call to renew and rediscover.

Delve into the thought-provoking world of Robotics, a collection in which artists explore the intricate relationship between humans and machines. Addressing collective consciousness, challenging our understanding of what it means to be human in the face of rapid technological advancements, artists put into consideration the very essence of our humanity. Is the human experience replicable, imitable, or even replaceable? Where does the limit stand between what is organic and what is synthetic? As artists confront us with the possibility of creating augmented humans, they urge us to wonder whether robotics enhances or diminishes our existence. Does technology make us better, or worse? Should we fear the rise of robotics, or should we embrace the opportunities they present? Can we create something living, something human, out of machines, as technology develops? In these works, artists address these various questions and offer some answers, tying their practices to the most contemporary of issues.
