Mammals of Brittany Photo Exhibition in Tréfumel: Nature’s B
Les mammifères de Bretagne is an outdoor photography exhibition at the Maison des Faluns in Tréfumel. Produced by the Groupe Mammalogique Breton, it accompanies the Atlas des Mammifères de Bretagne with images of the region’s wild mammals and the habitats they depend on. The Faluns setting links natural history, local geology and conservation work in a form that can be read at walking pace.
Traditional Dance in Brittany: Cultural Evolution
La danse traditionnelle en Bretagne examines social dance as a record of a society in motion. Videos, photographs and explanatory texts trace ridées, pilé-menus and related forms from rural community practice through aristocratic and bourgeois influence. Material developed with the Groupement Culturel Breton des Pays de Vilaine shows how industrialisation and rural migration reshaped dance around the Pays de Redon.
Trois Expositions at Musée Yan’ Dargent: Art & History
Trois expositions au Musée Yan’ Dargent places the painter back among the Léon landscapes, neighbors and spiritual references that shaped his work. Loans from regional museums sit beside large canvases by Alain Le Nost and Roger Moizan’s black-and-white photographs from Brittany and Ireland. Saint-Servais becomes the hinge between nineteenth-century Breton painting, parish enclosure imagery and a contemporary gaze on sacred places.
Une seule promesse à la fois in Trédrez-Locquémeau: Art & Im
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.
Exhibition in Dinard: German Coastal Defenses
Les défenses côtières allemandes de Dinard studies the bunkers and coastal defences built around Dinard during the Second World War. Organised with Histoire et Patrimoine du Pays de Dinard, the town and the Brittany region, the exhibition places wartime architecture inside a local landscape. Parc de Port Breton gives the subject a public setting where military history and seaside heritage can be read together.
Exposition “Partir en fumée” in Morlaix: Art Narrative
Partir en fumée presents Gabrielle Manglou’s drawings, photographs, volumes, archival images and found objects in Morlaix. Born in La Réunion and based in Locmiquélic, the artist works with Creole culture, fictional storytelling and forgotten narratives. The exhibition gives Brittany a meeting point with island memory, archival fragments and contemporary visual practice.
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.
Le vol du coeur d’Anne de Bretagne in Landévennec: Family En
Le vol du coeur d’Anne de Bretagne invites families into a playful search through the Breizh Odyssee museographic space. The story of Duchess Anne’s heart reliquary gives the activity a strong historical anchor, while the investigation format helps younger visitors handle heritage as a puzzle. The investigation makes Breton ducal memory active and accessible, grounding the game in a named historical figure and object.
