They are 37 works, many drawings, from the collections of the International City of Caricatures and Images (CIBDI) of Angoulême and the Poitou-Charentes Regional Fund for Contemporary Art (Frac) that have conceived this unique exhibition entitled “Drawing in all its states”, one of the originals of which is scheduled to be installed… in Bright red 20 ton semi trailer.
“Enjoy the beautiful things it has to offer.”
Located in the parking lot of the community center in the Kruen area, it is hard to miss “Momo”or the mobile museum, “which travels through New Aquitaine for the first time after having already done so in several countries in Europe and Africa as well,” confirms Lucie Avril, the museum's executive director.
Idea from the French artist Ingrid Brochard, this truck is equipped with air conditioning (21°C) as in a real museum to allow its visitors to enjoy the exhibitions it carries with complete peace of mind, perfectly designed, with a small exhibition room in addition, to achieve its mission: bringing art to the doorstep of the population, especially in rural and semi-urban areas.
Workshops are also on the list
Already passing through Angoulême where he began his tour of Charente at the beginning of the month, this museum is open for free until Friday 1 November (1) “For everyone without exception, adults and children, of all ages and groups. She also offers outdoor workshops on drawing,” says Nicole Roy.
Museum in a semi-trailer
MuMo, a mobile museum of contemporary art, departs from Angoulême for 12 weeks of touring the greater region. This Friday, he was at Chais Magelis. Today he is on the Champ-de-Mars. Inside: comic book creations and franks. Discovering art for a remote audience.
They are led by two mediators who are also responsible for supporting visitors in discovering the works on display, among which we find many original comics that mix with other forms of contemporary artistic drawing produced by artists from other worlds, such as drawing, video, sculpture, photography or even embroidery.
Set it up again CL
“The idea is to offer the audience an exploration of the common and multiple connections that connect these two worlds thanks to the freedom offered by the use of drawing,” explains Lucy Avril. On different themes, dreams, vertigo, disappearances or even superheroes, are at the heart of this exhibition where everyone has the freedom to indulge themselves, invited to question themselves or not, and appreciate it just for fun.
