Friche #5

CULTURE AND RURALITIES

From 20 October 2025 to 13 January 2026.

For this fifth edition of “La Friche,” three figures from the worlds of art and research have been invited to reflect on the links between art, rurality, and collective practice. La Friche #5 examines the emergence of collective spaces in rural or semi-urban areas and explores how these initiatives, which promote the mutualization of resources—human, economic, technical, and theoretical—are reinventing artistic, ecological, and humanistic work dynamics.

The dialogue between the researchers invited to this new edition allows us to map out these networks, which remain underrepresented, while highlighting the multiplicity of practices developed within them, always informed by their territory.
