When Makers Meet: Enriching Art Through Creative Collaboration at Lart et la Matiere

2017 | Sport & Leisure

Every two years, 50 to 60 top artists in all mediums travel to the tinytown of Aiguines in Provence, France, and spend six days and nights collaborating, cross-pollinating ideas, and trying out mediums theyve never used before. In these pages, learn about this valued source of energy in todays artistic world: the collaborative creativity seminar. Short texts by participants enhance over 275 gorgeous photos of artists in the process of collaborating, as well as the resulting masterful artworks. See how the artists created, in those six days, a total of 176 gallery-quality pieces by joining together across mediums--for instance, a woodturner, a glassblower, and a weaver working together on a project. This view inside the Aiguines event offers inspiration for artists and art organizations to increase their works quality and their own visions scope.
