FRAAC, LAAC and BA

Contemporary Art in Nord-Pas-de-Calais is surprisingly bouyant especially with the arrival of FRAAC (Fonds régional d’art contemporain Nord - Pas de Calais). It will be interesting to see if it takes over from LAAC (Lieu d'Art et d'Action Contemporaine), both great. BA (Beaux-Arts) excellent in Calais with the permanent exhibition of Rodin's works and an insight into how his famous bronze of Six Burghers, (located outside the Calais Hotel de Ville) evolved. Don't bother with the Jean Roulland retrospective. Art bit done next time food.


My newest favourite chair. (Elephant Chair at LAAC)
