Industrial flea markets and artists' ceramics
On the occasion of the European Heritage Days, we are pleased to invite you to share a convivial moment in the Colette Privat square, next to the Academy! An industrial flea market and a sale of ceramics will be held there from 11am to 5pm. During your walk, you will be able to observe more closely the matrices of the old Senard foundries but also to discover the works of four Rouen artists linked by utilitarian ceramics: Zoé Autin, Héloïse Bariol, Adèle Beaumais and Victoria Selva. This event offers the opportunity to take a leap into the past and take a look at contemporary creation. The creations of the 4 artists play on the porosity between utilitarian object and art object. They will rub shoulders with old industrial moulds, obsolete but whose variety of shapes and colors still amaze us today. This lighting allows us to question the unique piece and the mould, the object and the work. In order to learn more about the history of these matrices and to get acquainted with that of the Academy, youth (and pedagogical) booklets specially made for this day are made available on the tables of the Avant Poste (new Marommais associative bar, also located in the square). We look forward to seeing you there!
