Méditerranée, odyssées contemporaines

A sea of crossings and exchange, the Mediterranean carries memories of journeys and intertwined cultures, but also exile and loss. For centuries, people have crossed it seeking refuge and dignity.

In 2026, the Fondation Villa Datris gathers 74 artists from 20 countries to explore the Mediterranean as a shared territory. Their works address migration, common roots, and today’s challenges: climate change, borders and violence… blending commitment and poetry to celebrate hospitality, solidarity, and hope for an open, human Mediterranean.
