    Individual visit

    Our team is pre­sent to accom­pany you, if you wish, in the dis­covery of the cur­rent exhi­bi­tion. You will find a variety of tools to guide you during your visit:

    The exhi­bi­tion booklet (free, French/English bilin­gual), pub­lished for every exhi­bi­tion, helps you gain a deep under­standing of each artistic pro­ject through dif­ferent types of texts (essays, inter­views, fic­tion, poetry, etc.) and a range of images.
    All the brochures can be con­sulted here.

    A room sheet with the titles of the works and their cap­tions.

    The library: Bétonsalon’s doc­u­men­tary resources are dis­played in a con­crete book­case, a work by Romain Grateau called Grand tourisme à injec­tion (2021). For every exhi­bi­tion we offer a selec­tion of works that res­onate with and extend the dis­play. The selec­tion evolves according to the events, revealing the research and con­sid­er­a­tions that moti­vate the site and the team. They can be con­sulted over a cup of coffee or tea in the entrance hall.

    Various events, like meet­ings, writing work­shops and col­lec­tive reading and learning ses­sions are orga­nized around the library…

    And for the youngest:

    Bétonpapier: This edu­ca­tional tool, mainly intended for 6-11 year-olds, is a riso print poster. It allows chil­dren to better appro­priate the exhi­bi­tion by paying atten­tion to details, moving about in the space and expressing them­selves through drawing and games.

    Illustrator Pia-Melissa Laroche cre­ated the first three prints in 2022, with the sup­port of Catalogue Général graphic design studio. They are printed by Atelier Quintal.
    The prints can be con­sulted here.

    Workshop visit

    By including time for artistic prac­tice in the guided visit, the work­shop-visit allows vis­i­tors to explore the ongoing exhi­bi­tions dif­fer­ently. After a time of obser­va­tion and dis­cus­sion focusing on the works on dis­play, it is time to move on to prac­tice, and try to create shapes and apply the pro­cesses observed during the exhi­bi­tion! The work­shops are offered in dif­ferent for­mats for every exhi­bi­tion (for chil­dren, fam­i­lies, ado­les­cents, inter­gen­er­a­tional, adults, etc.).

    Duration: one hour and a half up to 2 hours

    → Wednesdays and Saturdays work­shops, fol­lowed by a snack. You can con­sult the details of the work­shops on offer in our cal­endar and on the ongoing exhi­bi­tion page.

    Information and reg­is­tra­tion: public­s@­be­ton­salon.net

    The work­shops are designed by the artists Célin Jiang and Mathilde Cameirao:

    Célin Jiang (born in 1993) is a mul­ti­dis­ci­plinary artist. She grad­u­ated in 2018 (with a dis­tinc­tion) from the HEAR - Haute École des Arts du Rhin - in the Rhine region, and fol­lowed the École Offshore Création et Mondialisation research pro­gramme at the ENSAD in Nancy.
    The artist describes her­self as born out of the migra­tory flow, and as a child of the Internet. Her mul­ti­faceted approach seeks to explore the rela­tion­ships between the arts, dif­ferent types of tech­nology and the dig­ital human­i­ties. By ques­tioning our per­cep­tion of iden­ti­ties in a global con­text, Célin Jiang views col­lab­o­ra­tive work as a vector of change.

    Mathilde Cameirao (born in 1981) studied art at the Jules Verne University in Amiens and at the ENSAPC in Cergy-Pontoise. In 2015 she par­tic­i­pated in a res­i­dency at the Château de la Roche-Guyon and her ani­ma­tion film was screened at the Off LIceu fes­tival (Barcelona opera) in 2017. She par­tic­i­pated in the Exposition Chair at the 100 ECS in 2018. Mathilde Cameirao works on move­ment, the body and lan­guage; she uses painting, tex­tile tech­niques and writing. She swims, plays the cello and doubts on a daily basis.
