Every two years, 50 to 60 top artists in all mediums travel to the tinytown of Aiguines in Provence, France, and spend six days and nights collaborating, cross-pollinating ideas, and trying out mediums they’ve never used before. In these pages, learn about this valued source of energy in todays artistic world: the collaborative creativity seminar. Short texts by participants enhance over 275 engaging photos of artists in the process of collaborating, as well as the resulting masterful artworks. See how the artists created, in those six days, a total of 176 gallery-quality pieces by joining together across mediums–for instance, a woodturner, a glassblower, and a weaver working together on a project. This view inside the Aiguines event offers inspiration for artists and art organizations to increase their works quality and their own visions scope.[AuthorName]By (author) AFTAB[/AuthorName][AuthorBio]
AFTAB, the national art woodturning association of France, promotes woodturning as a fine craft. Through forums and programs like the popular biennial collaborative event “L’Art et la Matire,” AFTAB works to connect and inspire artists.
