Une seule promesse à la fois was created for Galerie du Dourven by Ulla von Brandenburg with Benoit Résillot. Thirteen shades of blue form an underwater world that responds to the building and to the surrounding meeting of sea, land and sky. Mermaid song and Breton landscape blur interior and exterior, folklore and dream, giving the installation a sensory rhythm tied to its site.

Emmanuel Lepage Exhibition in Guingamp: Marine Art
Emmanuel Lepage’s exhibition presents the sea through the eye of a comic artist named Official Painter of the Navy. Original works connect Breton reefs, the Ar-Men lighthouse and distant ocean voyages, showing how drawing can hold both documentary force and maritime emotion. The exhibition gives Guingamp a wide seascape: local coast, expedition memory and graphic art together.
Ce que la pierre garde in Trédrez-Locquémeau: Mosaic Art
Ce que la pierre garde presents Paulina Okurowska’s mosaic work with recycled Breton slate, a material carrying roofs, weather and rural building memory. Cut, tilted and set with glass or gold leaf, the stone becomes relief, landscape and light. Schist and weathered roof tiles retain their Breton mineral identity even as they become contemporary relief, landscape and light.
Expo Samantha PRIGENT in Pouldreuzic: Equestrian Art
Expo Samantha Prigent presents the work of a painter and illustrator shaped by horses and the Breton countryside. Her childhood rides with Rica, her first horse, feed a body of paintings devoted to equestrian subjects and drawings of female silhouettes. The exhibition places animal movement, personal memory and rural landscape at the heart of the artist’s visual language.
Photographic Walks in Daoulas: Artistic Vision
Daoulas Photographic Walks present Joan Fontcuberta and Stéphane Mahé across the Abbey gardens and the town streets. Fontcuberta explores Corsican Mazzeri imagery, while Mahé brings a Breton surreal and dreamlike eye. The route connects contemporary photography with public space, letting the town itself become part of the exhibition experience.
Homard Exhibition in Trégastel: Marine Artistry
Homard at Aquarium Marin de Trégastel presents photography by author and artist Sylvain Bris alongside marine science. Rare lobster colours, including an electric-blue genetic mutation, reveal the diversity hidden beneath the pink-granite coast. The exhibition connects visual beauty with the animal’s ecology, cultural history and the fragility of Atlantic marine ecosystems.
Exposition “Dans nos filets” in Saint-Brieuc: Maritime Art
Dans nos filets at the Saint-Brieuc Museum examines the artistic image of fishermen and maritime labour. Works selected with the Orsay Museum show how painters, sculptors, writers and ethnologists interpreted men of the sea across different periods. The exhibition places those representations within collections shaped by Breton culture, coastal work and the museum’s own maritime history.
Ringers in Brittany: Artistic Expression
The biniou and bombarde duo takes centre stage in Les sonneurs vus par les artistes en Bretagne. At Musée du Faouët, more than 120 artworks, objects and documents explore the musicians who made this pairing emblematic of Breton traditional music. Guided visits and workshops for different ages extend the exhibition’s view of sonneurs through artistic representations.
Mystification in Arc-et-Senans: Architecture & Cinema
Mystification – Architecture et cinéma, la quête de l’illusion turns the Saline Royale into a dialogue between built space and screen image. Trompe-l’oeil, architectural models, film sets and immersive projections show how perspective can disturb reality. The exhibition includes Claude Gazier’s paintings and a recreation of the sets from Jean Cocteau’s Beauty and the Beast by Juan Pablo Molyneux.
