Led by the Brittany Region, the renovation of the Frac Bretagne’s paintings reserve will, from spring 2027, provide the necessary conditions for the conservation and security of this collection.
This major project requires a large-scale and delicate operation to transfer the works to other spaces. From 6 November, the Grand Galerie will therefore be showcasing a significant part of this collection, acquired since the 1980s – nearly 300 works covering the walls.
Faced with this panorama, you can settle down and let your gaze wander freely, find spaces for discussion, watch a film, or use an interactive terminal to identify the works.
Immersion also demonstrates the team’s resolve to keep the collection on display, despite major renovation work, to contribute to local cultural life and to keep this art space open.
The Back Wall features a collection of four works by Belgian artist Bernard Villers.
Through often minimalist interventions, he explores the relationships between color, light, and their mediums, while engaging with a long history of modern abstract painting.
