Art and Tree
L’arboretum de Roure est le seul arboretum d’altitude d’Europe à être lié à l’Art.
It has received the support of artists and writers such as Ben, Ernest Pignon-Ernest, Andy Goldsworthy as well as Louis Nucera, Arman, Jean-Michel Folon, César and Jean Marais qui seront à jamais les figures emblématiques de l’Arboretum.
Depuis l’installation du “Grand Guetteur” de Nicolas Lavarenne au château, Roure aborde le XXIe siècle avec une œuvre majeure d’art contemporain, créant une passerelle avec la tour de guet médiévale au village et le concept « Art & Arbre » à l’arboretum.
Since 2003, l’exposition itinérante « no-made », créée par Denis Gibelin, présente sur un thème, chaque année renouvelé, les œuvres de ce groupe d’artistes.
“No-made" is a collective of artists with fluctuating borders who come together around projects that make sense and in which their know-how is freely expressed. The "no-made" spirit is characterised by its privileged relationship with Nature since the works are entrusted to it so that She re-sculpts them with the wind, the rain, the snow, the hail, the sun... "no- made” asserts eclecticism and positions itself at the conjunction of artistic movements such as Land Art, Arte Povera and Ready-Made. Using various and ephemeral materials, "no-made" intervenes in unexpected places such as the Arboretum of Roure which becomes its base camp.
The exhibition is placed under the High Patronage of H.S.H. Prince Albert II of Monaco,who is very aware of the bridge between Science & Art on the site of the Arboretum Marcel Kroenlein.
The opening takes place every first Sunday of October.
