Triangle-Astérides
Triangle-Astérides is a contemporary art center of national interest, established since its founding in 1994 within the Friche la Belle de Mai cultural cooperative, a former tobacco factory in Marseille.
Triangle-Astérides combines a demanding exhibition program with research and experimentation residencies for artists from the French and international scenes, a program of associated artists and professionals for the local scene (in conjunction with the Ateliers de la Ville de Marseille), events, editorial projects and attentive work with all publics.
With a view to eco-responsibility while remaining resolutely international, Triangle-Astérides experiments with a working territory for its exhibitions: Europe and the Mediterranean.
Triangle-Astérides has inherited international networks (with the Triangle Network, which was at the origin of its creation and of which it remains a member while operating independently), as well as national and local ones (through the merger, in 2018, of Triangle France and Astérides). Connecting these different scales is at the heart of all its activities.
Triangle-Astérides is a non-profit association supported by the City of Marseille, the Ministry of Culture - DRAC Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, the Région Sud - Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur and the Département des Bouches-du-Rhône.
Son équipe est composée de quatre personnes ; son conseil d’administration de cinq dont un·e artiste.
