Olympic Torch Relay

On Sunday May 12, to celebrate the passage of the Olympic Torch Relay through Arles, LUMA Arles welcomes everyone to a day dedicated to Olympism and creativity.

 

May 12 program
Free access


Workshop ⎢ Collaborative weaving
3:30 p.m. - 6:00 p.m. (non-stop)

 

LUMA Arles and Manon Garcia del Barrio, textile artist, have imagined the creation of a contemporary and graphic collaborative woven fresco, on the theme of Art and Sport. This collective weaving was created by the “Maison de quartier de Griffeuille”, the “Centre social du quartier de Barriol” and the “Centre social Mas Clairanne du quartier du Trébon”. The work will be presented and assembled on the day of the event.

To tighten the bounds created, a weaving workshop will be held at the foot of The Tower, open to all. This workshop will enable anyone to learn how to weave and create a small flag as a reminder of this unique moment.

Open to all.
Meeting point: In front of The Tower

Biographies des artistes exposés

KOO JEONG A incorporates inter-subjective phenomena, digital features and timely imaginaries into sculpture, painting, film, animation, sound and scent, to reinvent the architectural space. The artist’s site-specific reconfigurations open up narrative portals, where various media are combined with natural elements, playing with the idea of correlations.

KOO has participated in various international exhibitions including La Biennale di Venezia, Liverpool Biennale, Gwangju Biennale, The Jewish Museum (New York, USA), The Guggenheim Museum (New York, USA), Fondation Louis Vuitton (Paris, France), and Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art (Seoul, Korea). The artist was a finalist for the Hugo Boss Prize in 2002, won the Hermès Korea Prize for contemporary art in 2005, and was named as 2016 Artist of the Year by the Korean Cultural Centre UK.
