ARTCONTEST WINDOW
Xavier DUFFAUT
RED Planet Vol.3
24.06 > 25.08.26
VERNISSAGE ON WEDNESDAY 24 JUNE 2026
ArtContest and Michèle Schoonjans Gallery are pleased to invite you to discover the installation “RED Planet Vol.3”, created by Belgian artist Xavier DUFFAUT, 2024 laureate.
An active member of ArtContest since 2007, Michèle Schoonjans is offering her gallery as a window display for ArtContest during the summer of 2026.
With ‘RED Planet Experience Vol. 3’, the artist transports us into an immersive experience at the heart of a reimagined Mars: a post-apocalyptic landscape where the dream of space exploration clashes with the reality of contemporary consumerism. Through a series of works blending religious iconography, advertising aesthetics and the entertainment industry, the installation questions the commodification of utopia and corporate control over our collective imaginations.
