Centre d’arts plastiques Fernand Léger
Established in the former residence of the directors of the Saint-Gobain factory since 2012, the Fernand Léger Visual Arts Center aims to promote the arts and make them accessible to all, through three main areas developed in close collaboration with the Association Art et Créations and in connection with the local territory:
• artistic dissemination through an annual programme of temporary exhibitions;
• support for contemporary creation through the regular hosting of artists in residence;
• education and training through its non-degree visual arts school open to all audiences, its Micro-Folie digital museum, and a regular programme of talks.

Programme
420 nanomètres, Anne Goyer
This unprecedented project is the culmination of fifteen years of research into the creation of a structural, non-pigment-based blue. In it, the artist develops the architecture of a painting made of white, translucent, and black materials that reproduces the atmospheric phenomenon of Rayleigh scattering. Here, light is captured to give the colour blue a vibratory quality.
Exhibition presented as part of the Printemps de l’Art Contemporain.
