18 institutions, 24 artists, 22 showcases in the heart of your cities! For the 7th consecutive year, Galeries Lafayette presents the event “Vitrines sur l’Art” from July 2 to 29, 2015 in five French cities: Bordeaux, Marseille, Nantes, Strasbourg and Toulouse. A total of 18 cultural institutions and museums are invited to invest in the showcases of these stores. This year, the region is being showcased through five cities that offer a rich and innovative cultural offering. For this new edition, in echo to their own programming, each institution is partnering with an artist who presents a new work or installation for their store windows. With “Vitrines sur l’Art”, Galeries Lafayette is once again emphasizing its role as a mediator between creation and the general public. Thanks to the works of the 24 artists represented, Galeries Lafayette’s showcases will offer a panoramic vision of the cultural offerings of these five cities.
