Take a self-guided or guided tour of the church and the Insos site. You can discover the exhibition of sculptures and paintings by Joëlle Couderc.
Joëlle Couderc:
After artistic studies and some painting tests, she discovered sculpture. Her hands then express her emotions and feelings. Rather symbolist, his sculptures transcend the woman, the couple, the maternity. The curves symbolize the sensuality of the bodies, the fluidity, the movement, seeking the most refined lines.
And lately, she realizes wood sculptures and stained glass, making the light sing. For 2023, she begins a theme: «Woman, Life, Freedom, to discover».
Jean-François Brivaud:
Born in 1965, in Castres in the Tarn, Jean-François Brivaud has Spanish origins, has grandparents of Andalusian and northern Spain. He drew and discovered painting from an early age, fascinated of course by the creative freedom of Picasso. His painting expresses freedom, vital energy, the perfection of colour and forms.
Spiritual research is an integral part of his artistic approach. Each painting is in itself a creative research in order to better understand what art is, what makes us witnesses and actors of a universal creation, which fascinates us and questions us about ourselves.
In addition to the exhibition, photos on the local flora and fauna of the site will be offered.

About the location

Église Saint-Martin d'Insos
Le bourg, 33730 Préchac
  • Gironde
  • Nouvelle-Aquitaine
The former parish of Insos, under the Ancien Régime, was under the seigneury of Cazeneuve for the temporal. After the revolution, it was attached to Préchac. This church, isolated in the open moor, was recently restored. The well-preserved Romanesque bedside is pierced with lancets and topped with a cornice with sculpted and historiated modillions. It has a beautiful gable bell tower with buttresses, military character, homogeneous of the fourteenth century. It receives to the north a turret containing a spiral staircase. The portal opens at the base, simple and elegant, and it includes three columns with impost, three vaults and an archivolt.
