Photography & Art
Centquatre
A very new concept in a very old building. A former funeral parlour has been transformed into a new artist residence/gallery. Artists are invited to create / exhibit / perform their work while the public watch. Sculptors, designers, painters, musicians and dancers can use the space, some 29,000 metres for their artistic expression. You'll also find an interesting restaurant. This is an opportunity to interact with the artist while they work.
The Program is extensive and ever-changing see details below for monthly events.
