From Mars to October 2025, l'lll. A collaboration with the river between CEAAC, La Kunsthalle and CRAC Alsace, a cooperative project with he support of Mieux produire, mieux diffuser program.
This cooperative project between the CRAC Alsace in Altkirch, the Kunsthalle in Mulhouse and the CEAAC in Strasbourg is rooted in the Ill, the mythical river crossing Alsace from south to north, and linking the three contemporary art centers and their respective territories: rural, urban, border. Driven by a desire to enter into dialogue with the river, this initiative aims to reactivate a sensitive link with it, while exploring its many dimensions—ecological, historical, biological, ontological, among others. Artists, the public, researchers and scientific and cultural actors are invited to take part in shared times of research, creation and circulation on a regional scale.
