meanwhile over in Paris . . .
Rendez-vous sauvage est un camion de marchand transformé en galerie
d’art contemporain itinérante. Imaginé par Jade Fourès-Varnier
comme un événement nomade pour présenter des œuvres de jeunes artistes français, Rendez-vous sauvage veut bouleverser le schéma habituel des expositions pour établir un échange direct et spontané
avec le public.
Our first gig!
This event might be of interest to you.
- please let me know if you would like to contribute by performance, film
or any other media or just stick it in your diary and come along
