The Biennale around the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes Region

par Vincent Gobber

Because the bifurcations we face are necessarily collective and contributive, and because real changes comes in small steps, numerous actors from all over the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region have joined the Biennale programme. Some twenty events are part of the Biennale's extended cultural programme, all of which prolong the theme of Bifurcations. many are exhibitions of contemporary art and design (Musée d’Art et d’Archéologie de Valence (26), Halle des Bouchers de Vienne (38), Halle de Pont-en-Royans (38), Musée Déchelette de Roanne (42).

Contributing to a Biennale of experiments and reflections, design-focused experiments will be taking up residence in a variety of landscapes, on the Via Rhôna trail, in the Monts d’Ardèche Regional Nature Park, in several villages in Loire and Haute-Loire, to address issues relating to the living world and the bifurcations facing rural communities. The convergence of the calendar of events with the festival season means that music can also join the party, with a new cultural slogan: tous bifurquants ! (bifurcations for all!)
