Carole Renard, artist photographer, immersed herself in the splendid works of pomology preserved in the old collections of the library. The 18th and 19th century engravings, illustrating edible fruits at different stages of evolution, were the starting point of this new artistic project. It is then at the Verger de la Marnière in Chambourcy, managed by the association «les Croqueurs de pommes», that she realized a series of 11 dyticks to come and discover at the National Horticultural Society of France.
Magic operates and a bridge is created between past and present, between graphic and living heritage. It is thus a question of time of creation, transmission and a certain form of contemplation.
The artist will be present from 1pm to 6pm to meet you and offer you cyanotype workshops. It is also an opportunity to discover the SNHF association.
Take advantage of your visit to participate in the free botanical drawing workshop and to learn about our historical association.
