The Conceptual Olympiad at the Château de Montsoreau – Museum of Contemporary Art, inspired by the innovative spirit of the Paris 2024 Olympics, transforms the historic château into a nexus of avant-garde ideas and artistic exploration. Emerging and established artists converge in this picturesque Loire Valley setting, redefining the boundaries of contemporary art through a conceptual challenge conjured up by Philippe Méaille and Marie Caroline Chaudruc, with Lara Pan as a consultant on the project. As participants engage with themes ranging from cultural identity to environmental stewardship, the château pushes the boundaries of traditional art exhibitions by inviting a global community of artists to participate.
Philippe Méaille about the Art & Language’s “A Bad Place” installation:
“In 2018, we installed a monumental work by Art & Language titled A BAD PLACE in the courtyard of the Chateau de Montsoreau – Museum of Contemporary Art. It could signify “we are A Bad Place”, that the place we are in is “A Bad Place”, or that art is “A Bad Place”. For some reason, it became a motto. We are more than happy to welcome people here to keep the discussion of art alive."
