Le Voyage a Nantes
Untill the 19th of August the city of Nantes will be the scene of a courageous art festival entitled Le Voyage a Nantes that will have to compete with the traditional dOCUMENTA (13).
The “arbre à basquet” by Agence a/LTA above is one of the site specific installation, the trailer below and the official webpage (in French, English, German and Spanish language) are part of a gorgeous communication platform that promise an unforgettable experience of the north-west French city on the Loire river. By the way Nantes happened to be awarded the EU Green Capital City 2013 title, which suggests a well established and integrated long term urban development perspective.
It is a real pity that it doesn’t fit to my Summer programmes. If you happen to get there please let me know!
