Mysteries of Life, an exhibition by Xavier Gautier.

Between 2023 and 2024, Xavier Gautier created a monumental graphic saga, presented in five self-published volumes. The Claude Lévi-Strauss Library will host his original drawings from December 2, 2025, to January 3, 2026, revealing a universe where biology merges with artificial intelligence. The artist uses a unique visual language composed of pictograms and explores the fields of art therapy and alternative theories to question our existence. His drawings, both schematic and poetic, challenge the usual conventions of storytelling, offering a unique perspective on the mechanisms of life. This exhibition, showcasing an independent and daring work, perfectly illustrates how symbols can replace words to express the complexity of our world. It is a unique opportunity to appreciate the work of an illustrator who transforms comics into a true laboratory of ideas.
