visite commentée · les expositions du moment

For its 4th edition, the Centre-Val de Loire region is organizing the AR(t]CHIPEL festival this fall, which features several contemporary art exhibitions showcasing artists from the region. This year, the festival’s program honors Alexander Calder, an American artist who settled in France 100 years ago and who lived and worked in the Centre-Val de Loire region. Echoing Alexander Calder’s monumental mobiles and stabiles on display in the nave by the Centre Pompidou and the region, the CCC OD presents the exhibition “The Idea of Celestial Bodies.” The art center is also hosting an exhibition organized by the AR(t]CHIPEL festival in the building’s glass-enclosed galleries, dedicated to the Centre-Val de Loire artist Ghislaine Vappereau.
