EDOUARD follows in the tradition of polymath artists: an electronic music producer since the early days of the French Touch, a solo-exhibited photographer, an art historian, and an engineer and coder. Initially exploring the world of NFTs as a digital art collector, he realized that he could merge his diverse practices within this innovative medium. Transposing his already established artistic practice, EDOUARD evolved it to harness the possibilities of this versatile medium.

In 2023, EDOUARD had a solo exhibition in April and June at NFT Factory Paris, he published online his extensive collection of digital art, and his work was selected by ArtCrush Gallery and Hennessy. In 2024, EDOUARD starts the new year with an exhibition at IHAM Gallery featuring new works, followed by an important two-week exhibition “The Art of Digital” at NFT Factory.

EXHIBITION THE ART OF DIGITAL @ NFT FACTORY

Digital art, whose market has been made possible by blockchain, is finally seeing its legitimacy recognized: inclusion in the collections of the Centre Pompidou, exhibition and sale of digital works at the Musée d'Orsay, articles in the mainstream press, richness and diversity of artistic approaches. Paris has unquestionably become the European capital of this new artistic and technological continent.

After staging the NFT Factory's first solo show in April 2023, EDOUARD returns with a new exhibition celebrating digital art, mixing his own works with those from his collection on the Factory's 50 screens, including the work of Agoria, the very first digital work sold by a French national museum.

It's rare for an artist to publicly take on another role, a fortiori that of collector, which exceeds in commitment that of curator. By exhibiting works from his collection, and drawing on his experience as an art historian, EDOUARD is making the following wager: digital art is the contemporary art of tomorrow.

March 18th to 28th, every day (incl. Sat. and Sun.) 1PM–7PM, 137 rue Saint-Martin, Paris, opposite Centre Pompidou.

Opening on March 21st, 7PM–11PM, in the presence of the artist, accompanied by the DJ set of his accomplice LIFELIKE.

EXHIBITION @ IHAM GALLERY

EDOUARD and BOOYASAN, both French artists known for their versatility, have shared a mutual appreciation since their initial encounter in Feb. 2023. They chose to materialize this camaraderie through collaborative artworks created with four hands, that led to a joint exhibition at IHAM Gallery, the last show of the first NFT physical gallery in Europe at their historical location.

Feb. 1st to 7th, 2PM-8PM, opening on Feb. 1st, 6PM-9PM, 46 boulevard Henri IV, Paris.

EXHIBITION @ NFT FACTORY

EDOUARD's seminal solo exhibition happened in April and June, 2023, at NFT Factory Paris. That unique hybrid digital art exhibition was the first of its kind in France, featuring the dual role of the artist as a curator, and it was NFT Factory's first solo show.

The exhibition did not claim to represent the diversity of art NFTs or delve into their history. Rather, as collecting and creating both involve making choices, it served as a tangible example of how these actions allow for the expression of one’s taste and personality in a complementary manner. It also strived to introduce visitors to a new generation of visual artists developing outside the traditional circuits of contemporary art.

For those who missed it, a virtual replicate of the exhibition was created, which you can visit by clicking the Virtual Exhibition button. (Chrome browser recommended)

In May 2023, Hennessy asked three visual artists, including EDOUARD, to imagine what their next limited edition bottle, targeted at the Web3 market, could look like. EDOUARD proposed a design for the bottle and packaging that combined the amber color of cognac with the characteristic style of his MARINIERE and CITYSCAPE series.
