LUMA Arles

Located on the Parc des Ateliers, an 11-hectare former railway wasteland, LUMA Arles is a unique site where the Frank Gehry-designed Tower and seven former factories from the 19th century industrial heritage interact in perfect harmony.

The gardens, park and pond surrounding the campus are the work of landscape architect Bas Smets. Conceived as a journey through the region by the flora and fauna that inhabit it, the 4-hectare park is a place of life, exchange and leisure open to all. As you stroll around, works of art, sculptures and installations are revealed, extending the discovery.

Both a place of production and experimentation for artists and the general public, every year LUMA Arles hosts exhibitions by major artists, works by leading figures in contemporary creation, special commissions and in-situ projects. Archives of artists, photographers and exhibitions are accessible in conditions worthy of the greatest international institutions.

These installations and exhibitions take place in different areas of the Parc des Ateliers, offering a year-round program.

In a spirit of sharing in all its forms, LUMA Arles organizes daily guided tours of the Parc des Ateliers and the exhibitions, in French and English.

Conceived as a place for debate, dialogue and the transmission of knowledge, LUMA Arles also transforms itself into a playground, offering educational programs and family workshops linked to its artistic program.

The Parc des Ateliers is thus conceived as a living organism that enables culture to express itself in all its facets.
