FRANCE / Bordeaux: The CAPC is forty

The CAPC is celebrating its 40th anniversary from february 28 to december 31, 2013.

At the beginning of the Seventies, Jean-Louis Froment created the CAPC, one of the first art centers in France.

For forty years it has been firmly rooted in the present. This is a direction which the physical power of the Entrepôt—the former warehouse housing the CAPC—has inspired and splendidly represented for four decades, broadcasting an exemplary pioneering and international programme with artists such as Claude Viallat, Richard Long, Keith Harring, Daniel Buren, Jean-Pierre Raynaud et Robert Morris.

Somewhere between anniversary-exhibition, neo-monograph, re-invention and panoramic table, the CAPC is presenting--and staging--the contemporary spirit of images, reminding us of its role as a generator/incubator in the cultural arena as much as its status as a dream machine hooked up to the cultures of its time.
