Programme
Living with the sea, Jacques Rougerie
Venue Villa Noailles, Hyères
En 2024, la villa Noailles traite de l’influence de la mer sur l’architecture en consacrant une exposition monographique à Jacques Rougerie, architecte français de renommée mondiale, académicien, spécialisé dans le domaine des habitats marins, sous-marins et littoraux. Il y a 3,8 milliards d’années la vie a commencé sous l’eau. Jacques Rougerie nous invite à y retourner.
L’exposition présente de nombreux dessins originaux provenant des archives personnelles de Jacques Rougerie, certains présentés pour la première fois, ainsi qu’une collection de ses maquettes dont celle d’un village sous-marin empruntée aux collections du Centre Pompidou. Par ailleurs, l’habitat sous-marin Aquabulle, qui a été expérimenté à de nombreuses reprises en Méditerranée, notamment au large de Hyères, est présenté sur le parvis de la villa Noailles.
