This Arts in Nature event will take place from the16th June till 16th September 2012 in a comunitary area of France.
The call for projects involves the creation of 11 works of art.
This event is first and foremost a site specific project which likes to think of itself as long lasting and which involves all the local authorities and players in the tourist trade concerned.
No specific theme has been given to the event so as to leave the artists free to express their artistic temperament. However, a guideline is taking shape around the notions of "the environment", "territory" and "creation, "Art and ecology" are themes that we embrace as well.
