Carrières de Lumière, FRANCE






In the historic site of Les Baux de Provence in the heart of the Alpilles, the former quarries dug out by the hands of man since the Roman era today offer the visitor a magical world of entrancing images and music.
From these quarries was extracted the white limestone used to build Les Baux and its citadel. In the 19th century, industrial development increased the demand for building stone and Les Baux exploited a large number of quarries. Around 1935, the quarry closed definitively. In 2011, the town of Les Baux-de-Provence entrusted Culturespaces with the management of its famous quarry. “Carrières de Lumières”, it is a fantastic laboratory of creativity for Culturespaces which has developed there an innovative concept: AMIEX® (Art & Music Immersive Experience). Spectators are totally immersed in the image projected onto all the surfaces of the rock. The ground is completely covered, too, and becomes a vast carpet of images.
Following the exhibition Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael, the Giants of the Renaissance or Klimt, in2016 the Carrières de Lumières has organised a never before seen multimedia event devoted to Marc Chagall.
