CREART: ARTIST IN RESIDENCE IN ROUEN (FRANCE) / 16 SEP – 16 OCT

The city of Rouen invites one artist from the CreArt Network to work for a month in Rouen at « La maison pressée » from September, 16th to October, 16th 2024.

The location: « La Maison Pressée »

La ”Maison Pressée” is an artist run space, managed by the association “Polymorphe”. This association aims at implementing artistic, cultural and citizen projects with and for the inhabitants, in public places, and more particularly in abandoned or unoccupied locations. Since 2015, this collective transforms unused places into spaces for meeting, reflexion and collaborative creation.

Since May 2021, Polymorphe is settled in a four-floor-building, located in the heart of Rouen at 9 rue des deux anges, called LA MAISON PRESSÉE. This place includes artists’ studios, an exhibition hall, a recycled material center and 2 apartment-studios with a shared kitchen.
