Ajouter à mon carnet de voyage

From 30th March 2012 to 6th January 2013
New - After a year of work to implement a new cultural project, you will discover in the heart of the famous stone quarries of Les Baux-de-Provence : 

 

 

  • a new cultural program focused on art history ;
  • a new light put into the quarries highlighting a unique and amazing place ;
  • new technological performance means (70 video projectors, space surrounding sound...) ;
  • new surfaces devolved to the show giving scope to the projection.

 

Directors : Gianfranco Iannuzzi, Renato Gatto, Massimiliano Siccardi

 

Through an amazing and unique audiovisual, the visitor will discover the bonds between Paul Gauguin and Vincent Van Gogh and their very different ways to use the color. The show evokes two routes with many similarities. The two artists began painting landscapes in the North of France, before joining the South which will bring an explosion of colors later inspired by the Islands for Gauguin and the south of France for Van Gogh.
 
Between each show visitors can take advantage of the latest creation of Gianfranco Iannuzzi : "Macrocosmos, Microcosmos". This show reveals a free interpretation of a journey in the elements and material. Designed around the color and echoing the show "Gauguin, Van Gogh, Painters of Color". 

 

Open from30th March 2012 to 6th January 2013, daily from 10.00 am to 7.00 pm. Closes at 6.00 pm from 1st October.
