Matisse – The Symphony of Colours
Immerse yourself in the flamboyant world of Henri Matisse during a fascinating immersive experience at the Bassins des Lumières in Bordeaux! The artist invites you to rediscover his works in a journey punctuated by chromatic stages. From Blue Nudes to Fauvism, via the shimmering colors of the painting Luxury, Calm and Voluptuousness, experience this invitation to travel to the rhythm of a bewitching soundtrack.
Frida Kahlo – In the Heart
To dive into the world of Frida Kahlo is to enter the heart of an ardent and vibrant life, shaped by passion, freedom and pain. The immersive Frida Kahlo experience invites visitors to explore the intimacy and creative force of the Mexican artist (1907-1954) in an explosion of colors, symbols, and emotions. Thanks to a series of monumental projections, the walls of the Bassins des Lumières are transformed to the rhythm of Frida’s life: from her first works marked by physical suffering and the search for self, to her most assertive paintings where the power of her identity and commitment shines through.
The Bassins des Lumières
Opened in 2020 in part of the city’s submarine base, it is the largest digital art center in the world. The site is composed of 4 water basins, projectors and enclosures allowing the projection of sound and light images. It is located in a former German submarine base from World War II. Inside the cells of the base, artists’ works are projected, in movement, to music, playing with the architecture of the place. Young and old alike will be enchanted by the movement of the works on the walls, on the floor, or on the water.
