The fourth edition of La Friche explores the notion of mental health in contemporary art.

La Friche will use the notion of the digital commons as a starting point for exploring how creators are finding more ecological, ethical and inclusive ways of thinking about and using the digital.

La Friche du Palais de Tokyo invites five artists and collectives to live and work in the spaces.

The specificity of this first Friche is to be particularly editorialized around the exhibition project Hors de la nuit des normes (out of the enormous boredom).

Through the institutional permaculture project developed since 2022 lies the notion of “zoning”, which proposes a reasoned use of the institution’s space and time. Thus, from June 2023, a space at the Palais de Tokyo will be transformed into a “friche”, i.e. a collective place for work, reflection, production, meetings and lulls for artists, collectives, researchers and magazines. This place provides them spaces, an intellectual environment and working conditions. La Friche meets a dual need, for artists and for the establishment. As part of an ecosystem, it organically and “naturally” nourishes the institution, stimulates its thinking and projects, and contributes to its day-to-day dynamism.
