About the Pavillion

Facing the Challenge brings together the twin urgencies of climate change and artificial intelligence. French artist Louis-Paul Caron presents Incendies, a series of AI-generated fire sequences where serene interior scenes contrast with burning landscapes beyond the window. The works echo Jacques Chirac’s warning that “our house is burning”, urging viewers to confront environmental responsibility rather than look away. By using generative technologies while questioning their impact, the exhibition highlights AI as both a contributor to and a tool for addressing global crises. It invites visitors to reflect, understand, and act within their own capacities.
