6th edition De Visu, contemporary art space in school

In today’s environment, culture is more than ever a priority and a necessity. Arts and cultural education remains a strong lever to combat inequalities in access to culture, inequalities that are particularly significant in the field of contemporary creation: the attendance of works is not sufficiently obvious for all and we know the weight of geographical barriers, but also social, economic, mental barriers that remain impassable for too many.

The Ministry of Culture has placed at the heart of its missions this question of transmission and democratization; it carries with the Ministry of National Education this ambitious goal of the generalization of arts and cultural education. To this end, it is essential that the multiplied efforts be joint, thanks in particular to partnerships with public actors, closer to the citizens.

The renewed partnership with the academic region and the Normandy region for this 6th edition of the regional DE VISU system demonstrates this again.

De Visu 2022-2023:

• 34 artists
• 60 institutions participating in the current network of art spaces
• Inaugural exhibition from 2 to 31 December 2022 at the Logis abbatial de Jumièges
• Financial support from the DRAC, the Normandy Region, the Academies of Caen and Rouen

All the works presented at the Jumièges Abbey, from December 2 to 31, 2022, are intended to take their full place in schools and higher education. Each of the artists will have the chance to live this special moment of encounter with an audience: students of course but also the educational community. They will have the opportunity to show and understand their reflection, their creative process, their unique methods and techniques.
