Don’t just like it, live it!
Wright Colloquium 2026 brings together interdisciplinary inquiry to rethink what we call intelligence. The program examines intelligence across scales — from artificial systems and ant colonies to neurons and engrams — and considers cognitive, neurological and philosophical perspectives. Participants will explore how different forms of intelligence shape societies, knowledge and our worldviews, with discussions, panels and workshops aimed at advancing conceptual and practical understanding.
In French and in English.
Created and performed by Elina Kulikova and Dima Efremov, TRILOGIE DE LA GUERRE interweaves three musical-performance pieces responding to exile, the war in Ukraine and repression in Russia. Kulikova’s chapters evoke classical and folk song, transforming lament into a ritualised, sensory mourning; Efremov’s contribution uses sound art and electro textures to shift perspective and map clandestine networks of resistance. Together the trilogy forms a compact dramaturgy of intimacy, unease and fragile hope, immersive and politically charged.
Art en Vieille-Ville (AVV) gathers a wide panorama of contemporary and historical practices across painting, photography, sculpture, printmaking and installation. Artists such as Marta Blanc, Jérôme Zonder, Sonia Zannettacci, Rosa Turetsky, Natacha Mercier, Jean‑Louis Perrot and Alexandre de Spengler present works that juxtapose sacred imagery, urban realism and historical engraving. The exhibition explores dialogue between past and present—from 17th‑century references and Futurist echoes to New Realism’s poetic reworking of the city—revealing how technique and memory shape collective cultural narratives.
