Understand the Bordeaux scene

From the merchant port to the new cultural factories

The MusBA and the Galerie des Beaux-Arts recall the antiquity of Bordeaux collections. The CAPC, installed in the Lainé Warehouse, gave the city a major place in the history of contemporary art. Around these institutions, the Chartrons have preserved a culture of galleries, while Bacalan, the Bassins à flot, the MÉCA and the Fabrique Pola have transformed port and industrial architecture into places of exhibition, production and meeting.

01

Check the programming

Private galleries open mainly from Wednesday to Saturday and sometimes close between two clashes. Check the official website on the day of your visit.

02

Move forward by neighborhood

Center and Chartrons form the densest routes. Bacalan, the station and the right bank require more time but reveal the most monumental places.

03

Alternate formats

Combine museum, shopping mall, art center and collective workshop: each model illuminates the works, the artists and the market differently.
