Deadline: Open call
La Maison Verte
La Maison Verte residency is looking for new projects and artists. The open call is all year round!
The Botanical Garden of Marnay-sur-Seine is now welcoming artists within the program «Pays'art» of «La Maison verte» in the heart of the village. Artists of all nationalities can stay at La Maison Verte to enjoy a time of creativity and production in a rural environment.
«Pays’art» is a concept that emerges from the mesology, that is to say the science of natural environment, that studies the relationship between beings in general, or human beings in particular, with their natural environment, or «milieu».
The French philosopher and geographer Augustin Berque is nowadays the principal representative. This has now acquired a new hold with the radical changes that Epigenetic have introduced into the question of evolution. From molecular biology to the ecological crisis of the real world, from quantum theory to history and geography, from medicine to works of art and architecture, the deployment of the mesological perspective brings into question the fundamental ontology and logic of modern civilization. The scientific and philosophical thinking that inspires «Pays'art» is the mesology.
The aim of «Pays'art» is to open a field of reflection and expression towards a paradigm shift in the anthropocene era.
Disciplines, work equipment and assistance
For residencies of creation, la Maison Verte will organize a public presentation of the artist's project, and also contact the local press to publicize the event, as well as sharing it on social networks. La Maison Verte will do its best to facilitate your artistic project, and provide you with the gardeners' expertise, as well as making garden tools available to you. When needed, we can arrange meetings with local people, and also help you to discover natural areas around Marnay. Works created by the artists will be able to be presented to the public, not only in the garden, but also in the village and externally in the spaces of our partnerships.
