Art for everyone! Let your imagination run wild….from contempory art in an abbey, giant sculptures on a walk, paintings in a château, prints in a barn….in Haute-Corrèze artists exhibit their art in original places.
Permanent exhibitions
Art is not ony ephemeral; sculptures and dressed trees are visible all year.
The festival Sculpturama was created here. Each summer, artists from France and further afield converge on the Haute-Corrèze to make giant sculptures from metal, wood or stone, which are put in public places. A true artistic walk in all seasons!
On the plateau of Millevaches there are the dressed trees of Saint-Setiers, creating a universe of fantasy in a superb landscape!
The celebration of art in all its forms!
At Bort-les-Orgues
The exhibitions are in the Château de Val. There are two exhibitions each year, one in spring the other in summer. Each painter does a painting of the château. Go and see them!
