The Quatr’heures of Chamarande
meetings-debates to cross artistic and scientific approaches
This winter cycle is in line with the theme of the exhibition Vues, with subjects related to questions about the landscape of yesterday and today. Artists, scientists, philosophers and sociologists are all part of the same culture: they shed light on our view of man and the world. The Quat’heures de Chamarande are a new time for sustainable breathing. Come and meet, exchange and debate with landscape specialists around a snack of local and fair trade products. A tasty, interactive and friendly formula, to be reviewed or replayed on chamarande.essonne.fr
Hosted by COAL.
