The exhibition Systems & Codes considers a world increasingly shaped by invisible algorithms - structures that, while often reinforcing existing predispositions, also foster transnational collaboration and technological innovation.
The exhibition’s thematic framework draws inspiration from the five Rothschild Brothers, whose pioneering approach to global finance was grounded in connectivity, communication, and a vision that transcended borders. Their legacy informs the show’s investigation into the systems - both technological and social - that govern contemporary life.
Featuring ten artists the exhibition brings together a range of practices that interrogate how perception, language, and social behavior are conditioned by visible and invisible codes. Stephen Willats, reflects on the coded structures of collective life, offering nuanced insights into social rituals and behavioural systems.
