Centre international d'art et du paysage de Vassivière
Centre international d'art et du paysage de Vassivière, Contemporary art center on Vassivière Island, Beaumont-du-Lac, France.
The art center features a lighthouse tower and linear gallery designed by architects Aldo Rossi and Xavier Fabre, situated on an artificial lake.
The center opened in 1989 with buildings completed in 1991, following the establishment of an outdoor sculpture museum that began in 1985.
The sculpture park displays sixty permanent artworks across the landscape, with notable contributors including Andy Goldsworthy and Michelangelo Pistoletto.
The center organizes three temporary exhibitions annually, accompanied by conferences, projections, and debates focusing on contemporary art expressions.
The facility incorporates an artist residency program in the old castle, allowing three creators to work simultaneously for four-month periods.
