Exhibition "La Fleur et la Force"
The 1st Contemporaine de Nîmes program is centered around a major exhibition entitled “La Fleur et la Force” [The Flower and the Strength] in reference to the prime of life. Deployed in the form of an itinerary across the city center, it comprises twelve artistic projects in as many locations: museums, cultural venues, heritage sites, public spaces… Each of them brings together an emerging artist and an established or historic one in an intergenerational pair, as well as a local community involved in the creation. The exhibition layout is divided into five sectors, which can be visited in any order: Gare, Arènes, Chapitre, Carré and Jardins.
