What to see at Espace le Carré

The gallery is dedicated to hosting a programme of temporary exhibitions, which provide an opportunity to explore and promote artistic creation in the region. Current and planned exhibitions include:

Mon Ranch
Mon Ranch is an exhibition (until 8 December 2024) curated by Matthieu Morin, an author, curator and collector with a keen interest in outsider and popular art. Mon Ranch features works ranging from comic art to contemporary photography, exploring themes of imagined or dream-like territories. The exhibition also highlights the roles of researchers and artistic networks, emphasising creative solidarity.
