At La Condition Publique in Roubaix, Au-delà de toutes les mers brings together artists whose work crosses Morocco, France and the wider Mediterranean world. Presented within the Saison Méditerranée 2026, the exhibition uses contemporary art to speak about migration, language, memory and cultural circulation. Visitors encounter a Roubaix cultural venue in dialogue with Rabat and with artists shaped by more than one shore. The result is a regional cultural stop with a wider horizon, showing how a former industrial city can host Mediterranean histories, diasporas and creative exchange.

Julian Schnabel Exhibition at Château La Coste
Julian Schnabel Exhibition at Château La Coste takes place at Galerie des Anciens Chais, Domaine Château La Coste, 2750 Route de la Cride, in Le Puy-Sainte-Réparade. The public schedule is 25 April to 15 August 2026. Its regional value is in the relationship between the work shown, the venue and the local cultural network that hosts it. It also carries a second reading: its regional value comes from the place itself: a monument, museum, chapel, archive, route or commemorative setting that carries local memory. Château La Coste presents a Julian Schnabel exhibition bringing together major works selected in dialogue with Donatien Grau. The venue, artist, medium, collection and public setting give the exhibition or art route its regional frame. The named site, historical period, local story and connection with the surrounding community give the event its heritage depth. Local markers such as julian schnabel and contemporary art keep the focus on the people, products, repertoire or customs behind the programme. The practical anchor is Galerie des Anciens Chais, Domaine Château La Coste, 2750 Route de la Cride, 13610 Le Puy-Sainte-Réparade, France, a precise location that keeps the event tied to its town rather than to a loose regional label.
