Château de Forbin returns to the course of history and reconnects with its heritage of art and culture. After exhibiting over a hundred works of the New York post-graffiti movement of the 80s and 90s, the owners decided to expand and diversify this policy of exhibiting works of art within the Château. Today, a new chapter begins and a new adventure begins: that of a program of workshops and residencies for artists, invited to work, create and exhibit in the unique setting of the Château.
On the edge of the Parc National des Calanques, in this unique setting, the artist residency program was launched with the aim of offering creators a place to produce in the heart of Provence, a place to encourage and highlight the exploration of new avenues of work, as well as the amplification and extension of approaches already underway.
The purpose of these artist residencies is to enable artists to bring their work to life, to structure exhibitions, to take part in organized or informal meetings, to take part in exchanges with professionals and collectors, and to engage in dialogue with the potential public, who can also discover production during open houses and studio visits.
