Troika

Troika is a contemporary art group founded in 2003 by Eva Rucki (*1976, Germany), Conny Freyer (*1976, Germany), and Sebastien Noel (*1977, France). The artists live and work in London, UK. The collective’s paintings, sculptures, films, and large-scale installations contemplate on the intersections between analog and digital realities. At the center of their interest are humanity‘s experiences and knowledge gained through technology and how these transform our understanding and relationships to nature, society, and reality. Troika’s collaborative approach is usually based on in-depth scientific research in the fields of natural philosophy and the history of technology. Their work incorporates complex questions about artificial intelligence, algorithmic data, alternative forms of life, and virtual and physical representation systems.

In 2024, Troika will have a solo exhibitions at Langen Foundation in Neuss and at the MAK in Vienna.  Selected solo exhibitions have been presented at Espacio Arte Abierto in Mexico City (2021), Barbican Gallery in London (2019), NC-arte in Bogotá (2015) und Daelim Museum in Seoul (2014). Troika’s cross-media works are part of the collections of the Center Pompidou, Paris; M+, Hong Kong; the Victoria & Albert Museum, London; the Art Institute of Chicago; the Museum of Modern Art, New York; Jumex Collection, Mexico City; and the Eretz Israel Museum, Tel Aviv. Troika realized three site-specific installations for the British Pavilion at World Exhibition 2010 Shanghai.
