Mission and Objectives

L’OBSERVATOIRE strives to create the necessary conditions for artistic projects that are not adapted to the academic, cultural and artistic production systems of the MENA region. It also wants to spread them through the public by experimenting with alternative approaches, through mainly:
- Residencies, laboratories and research seminars
- Production of books, magazines, films, documentaries, performances, art works
- Programming and designing of cycles, workshops and exhibitions in public spaces
- Creation of a resource centre / “Musée Collectif sur l’Oubli” (Museum of Collective oblivion)
In addition, L’OBSERVATOIRE proposes the monitoring and ongoing reflection on the challenges of research and experimentation in Humanities, Art and Film within society.
