Since 1987, the Crédac has welcomed emerging and established French and foreign artists who reflect the diversity of current practices. Since 2011, the art center is located on the top floor of the American building of the Manufacture des Œillets. This jewel of industrial heritage built in 1913 on the model of the Daylight Factory, in glass and steel, is one of the first manifestations of functionalism in France. The Fugitive is the title that Marcel Proust gives to the sixth volume of In Search of Lost Time. The collective exhibition at the Crédac gives body to the character of Albertine and is constructed as a journey from the domestic space of the girl to the real and fantasized environments that in the book are hidden from the eyes of the narrator.
