Resulting from various collaborations between artists and companies in Lyon and the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, this edition of the Biennale showcases works specifically produced to celebrate local distribution networks. These partnerships between international artists and the local technical, industrial, scientific and volunteer communities highlight an unprecedented model for art production, initiating a long-term strategy with local roots.
