Summer 2024
During the day, immerse yourself in the genius of the painters of the North and their authentic paintings that are faithful representations of nature and its themes. The monumental basins are the perfect setting for a daydream along the Flemish canals, following in the footsteps of the great masters who represented the ordinary in an extraordinary way.
During the night, dive into a maze of stars, planets, nebulae, and supernovae. The sky and its stars have always exerted a great fascination on man, exploring the unknown expanses of the universe has been his dream since time immemorial.
In Bordeaux’s former submarine base, Culturespaces created a digital art center in 2020. The Bassins des Lumières, which are the largest digital arts centre in the world, presents monumental immersive digital exhibitions, dedicated to major artists in the history of art and to contemporary art.
