The Sainte-Marie de la Tourette Convent is currently home to a Dominican community of about ten people within a building designed by Le Corbusier and Yannis Xenakis. Built in 1956, this concrete structure is one of the architect’s most iconic works. The convent is conceived according to the three primary functions of monastic life: living, studying, and praying within simple and purified geometric volumes typical of the brutalist movement. Light plays a central role here thanks to ingenious transparency techniques with glass, openings towards the surrounding park, and other architectural perspectives. Nowadays, the place is shared between monastic life and openness to the public, who come to appreciate its architecture and contemporary art exhibitions presented throughout the year
Château de la Chaize
3:15 p.m. - 5:45 p.m. : Guided tour and wine tasting
Guided tour by Didier Repellin, chief architect of historic monuments
After lunch at the convent, a visit of the château de la Chaize offers an interesting example of the restoration of a historical monument from the 17 century. This vineyard estate was established in 1676 according to plans by Jules-Hardouin Mansart and André Le Nôtre, architects of Louis XIV. The building is in a classical 17th-century style, characterized by harmony and symmetry. The French garden offers a characteristic example of this period, the entirety of which has been classified as Historical Monuments since 1972.
Today, after being in the hands of François de La Chaize d’Aix's descendants for 350 years, the Gruy family has been overseeing the estate since 2017. Developing the vineyard activity towards organic and ecoresponsible production, the castle will offer the opportunity for congress participants to taste wines on-site. The restoration project will be presented by Didier Repellin, Inspector General of Historical Monuments and Chief Architect of Historical Monuments (honorary).

The journey begins with the exploration of the Museum of Art and Industry and the city of Saint-Etienne. This museum focuses its collections on three emblematic objects that illustrate the city’s history: weapons, textiles, and bicycles. This eclectic mix combines art and industry, the beautiful and the useful, form and function, coexisting within an innovative museography, housed in its 19th-century building. From military design to a ribbon collection, the world's first collection tracing the history of technological advancements in fashion, the museum aims to portray the material history and industrial creation through its regional heritage.

The tour continues to the neighboring town of Firminy and the discovery of the Firminy-Vert neighborhood designed by Le Corbusier in the mid-1950s. In response to the exponential increase in the number of inhabitants and the unsanitary conditions of the city, the then-mayor Eugène Claudius-Petit proposed the idea of building a new neighborhood. This was to challenge the reputation of a place polluted by factory smoke, with the city being nicknamed “Firminy la Noire.” The birth of Firminy-Vert offered a new conception of urbanism, giving way to large green spaces and light. The atypical architecture of its housing unit and stadium is based on concrete work and the brutalist aesthetic reaches its peak with the recently completed conical-shaped church.

9:00 a.m. : Departure from Lyon
Royal Monastery of Brou
10:30 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. : Guided tour
Built between 1506 and 1532, the Royal Monastery of Brou in Bourg-en-Bresse is a Gothic-style building with a unique history. Upon the death of her husband Philibert Le Beau three years after their union, Margaret of Austria had a monastery erected in the form of a mausoleum, housing the couple’s sumptuous tombs. The intricate carving work present throughout the architecture and the colorful lozenges typical of local roofing make it a unique place whose excellent state of preservation restores its original charm. The monastery was occupied by Augustinian monks until 1906, gradually losing its religious functions after the separation of Church and State. The main building now houses the municipal museum, which preserves collections ranging from medieval objects to decorative arts and contemporary pieces. Visitors will have the opportunity to visit the temporary exhibition Nicolas Boulard, la galerie des pains.

splendor of these constructions symbolizing their influence. One such figure is Jean Sèves, a Calvinist who became one of the wealthiest men in the region, serving as regent of the Hospice de la Charité in Lyon and municipal magistrate after escaping the St. Bartholomew’s Day Massacre. At the height of its grandeur, the castle was a means to assert his power and nobility. The place bears the traces of a troubled era, with its Calvinist temple located on the third floor, and the entirety of its frescoes painted by the Italian artist Pietro Ricchi.

10:30 a.m. - 12:00 a.m. : Guided tour

Its uniqueness lies in the characteristic eclectic style of the 19th century, drawing from Greco-Latin, neo- Gothic, and even Byzantine forms. The region's glasswork specialty is evident in the intricately detailed stained-glass windows, showcasing particular craftsmanship.

Built between 1974 and 1981, this housing complex is located in a unique place, the Saint Gérald hill. This natural location became one of the architect's concerns, fueling his desire to balance housing and nature. The Cité des Étoiles embodies a renewal in urban planning at the time, in agreement with the municipality of the city, led by the communist mayor Camille Vallin. The place is an example of political will aiming to improve the daily lives of residents through adapted and innovative architecture.

After the couple's death, the place was bequeathed to the Artists’ Foundation, which ensures two main missions: the recognition and dissemination of Albert Gleizes’ work, and the support of contemporary artists welcomed in the Moly-Sabata workshops.

In 1879, at the age of 43, he stumbled upon a strange stone during his rounds as a postman in his village, and came up with the idea of a monument building. According to legend, the postman Cheval spent thirty-three years of his life building his Ideal Palace. Inspired by nature and the postcards passing through his hands, the palace was built with the stones he collected daily. Completed in 1912, this extraordinary palace followed no architectural rules or artistic movements. André Malraux initiated its Monument Historic classification in 1969 under the title of “naive art.” The palace’s legacy is ensured by the imagination it nurtures, that of surrealists like Max Ernst and his painting Facteur Cheval (1932).

ARTISSIMA
Private collection of contemporary art
Le Moulin
673, chemin de la Plage
69270 Rochetaillée sur SaôneGuided visits:
The collection can be visited exclusively by reservation during guided tours lasting an hour and a half. Please do not hesitate to contact us to organize group visits for groups of 10 or more.
The ARTISSIMA Collection is the private collection of contemporary art of François and Michelle Philippon.
François Philippon is a collector of contemporary art; he has been searching, discovering and buying works for over 40 years. Michelle has always supported this project and has been very committed to the opening of the Moulin, a private space that houses this collection of paintings and sculptures, but also photographs, drawings, videos and other installations by international artists.
The ARTISSIMA Collection is the story of a private passion, started at a very young age. It is not a family story, but the passion of a life, intimate, discreet and constant over the years.
From Paris, then quickly from Lyon, acquisitions are made "with the head and the heart", mainly from galleries, in France and abroad. The ARTISSIMA Collection has been built in freedom and exigency, around a deep love for art, the sensitivity of artists and their place in the history of their time. The choices are mainly focused on themes such as fragility, rupture, construction/deconstruction.
This collection reflects the journey of a man who today assumes this passion to the point of being able to propose this very personal place, which resembles a museum without being one. In this private place, which is not subject to the constraints of a museum, there is a real desire for freedom, sharing and transmission.

The Villas Tony Garnier trail in Saint-Rambert
Visit 20.
Address: meet in front of Tony Garnier's villa, at the corner of Quai Paul-Sédaillan and rue de la Mignonne, Lyon, 69009.
Capacity: 15 people [FULL / Booking no more available]
Guided tour: Wednesday 26 June, 9am-12.30pm, by Pierre Gras, Honorary Professor at the École nationale d'architecture de Lyon.
Between 1910 and 1920, Tony Garnier built three villas on the Saint-Rambert site, on the banks of the Saône. The first was for himself, the second for his wife and the third for a private client, Antoinette Bachelard. These three buildings are among the pioneers of the Modern Movement, offering a different perspective on its beginnings. Their construction and decoration are particularly interesting for their materiality. The first two are artists' homes, and are sensitive and seminal testimonies to the movement. The owners of these villas have agreed to welcome a limited number of visitors. Their visit is an exceptional opportunity.

Lecture of Jacqueline Salmon at Musée d'art contemporain de Lyon
Du projet à l'objet - Matériaux à l'oeuvre
Précédent les projets : un mille-feuille, de choses vues, lues, entendues et mémorisées, de parts larges ou minimes, concrètes, découvertes, choisies, cadrées, prélevées dans le monde et rendues au monde, métamorphosées à l’aide d’actions nécessitant des outils précis.
Un exemple simple avant la photographie numérique : Lônes, 1989 photographies de paysages.
De l’idée à la réalisation, comment les matériaux intellectuels et matériels mènent l’œuvre en constante synergie. Liste et description des outils et des actions nécessaires, depuis la recherche du titre jusqu’ à la réalisation d’une exposition, d’une édition.
Un exemple complexe au temps du numérique : 42,84 km2 sous le ciel, portrait de ville. Interviennent des recherches en archives, des articles de journaux, des portraits, des plans urbains anciens et modernes, des statistiques, des dessins, des interviews, des vidéos, des ouvrages précis, des plans anciens, une nécessaire formation à la météorologie…

Lecture of Gilles Clément & Coloco at the Museum of Contemporary Art of Lyon
Organised by the Musée d'art contemporain de Lyon and Archopel, the maison de l'architecture de Lyon
Depuis que la crise environnementale mondiale a radicalement changé l'approche des projets, nous sommes poussés à inventer de nouvelles stratégies. Immergés dans le jardin Planétaire, au sein du Vivant, nous cherchons à développer le projet en termes de temps au-delà de la création spatiale. La Préséance du Vivant propose une façon d'explorer les dimensions collaboratives et les méthodologies pour s'intégrer dans les dynamiques du Vivant. Cette opportunité de partager notre travail à Lyon avec cette exposition vise à réfléchir collectivement à notre responsabilité en tant que paysagistes pour façonner de nouveaux futurs.
« L’avenir sera fait de métissages naturels, culturels et technologiques imprévisibles. Nous devons repenser la place de l’espèce humaine au sein du vivant avec une responsabilité d’invention face à l’enjeu de préserver l’habitabilité de la planète. La nature n’est pas un état idéal, nostalgique d’un passé idéalisé, mais une force de renouvellement à comprendre avant d'intervenir sur un projet. À chaque situation ses réponses concrètes, toujours collectives et engagées durablement. »
