Arles
Located at the foot of the Arles arena, Maison Thalie exhibits both its contemporary art collection and guest artists in residence each summer, focusing on practices that incorporate bio-sourced design, craftsmanship and local resources.
The art collection reflects a commitment to ecological narratives, practices that integrate know-how and the emergence of scenes from the Global South; it is housed in this former 18th-century mansion; textile works, ceramics, sculptures, photographs and commissions from artists in situ.
The Foundation has presented the following exhibitions since its opening
- Géologie des Âmes (Geology of Souls) - foundation collection - July/August 2025
