La Contemporaine de Nîmes
The Nîmes Triennale 2024, known as “Contemporaine” and directed by Anna Labouze and Keimis Henni, is set to be a major new contemporary art event. Under the theme “A new youth”, this first edition explores the dynamics of contemporary youth and its links with the past through the notions of heritage and transmission.
The programme includes a major multidisciplinary exhibition, “La Fleur et la Force”, featuring 12 pairs of artists in different venues. There will also be six special events devoted to the living and performing arts. At the same time, three artists’ houses will serve as meeting places for the artists, encouraging creative exchanges and dialogue with the public. Finally, a programme of associated events, devised in collaboration with some fifteen of Nîmes’ cultural players, will offer a variety of events and artistic encounters.
Each project presented as part of the Triennale has a participatory dimension, inviting the people of Nîmes to get involved in its creation and become an integral part of this collective artistic experience.
