FLV Lab 7 - Multi-Format, Multi-Scale

The seventh FLV Lab presented interactive mini-games for tablets based on the theme of Basquiat x Warhol. Painting Four Hands. The prototypes were scattered throughout the exhibition and the architectural tour path.

Each year, the FLV Lab invites students pursuing the Applied Arts Master’s degree (DSAA) in graphic design and multimedia narration at the Lycée Jacques Prévert in Boulogne-Billancourt, to design and build prototypes of digital projects that focus on the Frank Gehry building and the exhibitions on display at the time.

This guided visitors on a veritable safari as they learned about architect Frank Gehry’s design intentions by uncovering a series of fascinating anecdotes. Those who found them all won a poster!

Visitors stepped into the ring and defended their title in a frenzied photography battle. They were asked to strike a pose like Andy Warhol and Jean-Michel Basquiat and put on their boxing gloves for a one-two cultural punch!

Visitors tested their knowledge and powers of observation at the end of the Basquiat x Warhol. Painting Four Hands exhibition by answering 10 questions about this dynamic duo.

Visitors got an insider’s look at The Factory as they learned about how the artists worked and played, dotted with juicy anecdotes about them! It all ended with a quiz, so they had to pay attention!

This little workshop gave you a chance to lend your artistic touch to a collaborative mural at The Factory. Just like Basquiat.

Visitors travelled back in time to 1984, deep into the day-to-day lives of Andy Warhol and Jean-Michel Basquiat. They explored iconic objects that once belonged to these two artists.

Deep in a forest dotted with the remnants of a vanished world, a small, solitary being needed help. Visitors lent a hand to this nature spirit by interacting with an environment that constantly changed with the seasons, directly inspired by Adrián Villar Rojas’s work Where the Slaves Live. This game intricately examined the importance of vestiges and what we leave behind us, traces of past civilisations.

Players must find all these images in the Fondation gallery! The more you recognised, the better your chances were of winning the final quiz.

Visitors scanned the pictograms on the giant hen and read anecdotes about artists from the New York art scene of the 1980s!
