About the program
GENERATOR selects two to four curators each year for a one-month prospecting trip in Brittany. They meet artists and professionals who live there and write one or two texts on the work of the artists in the program.
GENERATOR offers each of them a workspace, funding and privileged meetings with contemporary art professionals in Brittany. With the collaboration of the art centers La Criée (Rennes) and Passerelle (Brest), Frac Bretagne, the Archives de la critique d’art (Rennes), Documents d’artistes Bretagne and a.c.b. – contemporary art in Bretagne, this programme combines and provides available to young artists and curators the critical and technical skills gathered in Brittany, a dynamic territory composed of numerous contemporary art structures dedicated to the exhibition, collection, research and publishing.
