"Strange Rules" is an exhibition presenting the concept of Protocol Art, a practice engaging with the rules that dictate how culture is produced, distributed, and perceived in a digital age, such as algorithms, artificial intelligence models, computer protocols, and platforms. It is curated by Mat Dryhurst, Holly Herndon, and Hans Ulrich Obrist, with Adriana Rispoli, and features artists including Joshua Citarella, Harold Cohen, Simon Denny with Venkatesh Rao, Stephanie Dinkins, Lynn Hershman Leeson, Ho Tzu Nyen, Ayoung Kim, Agnieszka Kurant, Trevor Paglen, Philippe Parreno, Avery Singer, and terra0. The project presents the artwork as a process governed by instructions, moving from the object to the system and toward human-machine co-creation, and runs alongside a new publication mapping Protocol Art as a field of practice. The exhibition spans installations, video works, and time-based interventions such as lectures, performances, and screenings, including a new collaborative commission by Mat Dryhurst and Holly Herndon in partnership with SUB.
