Calais REgénération

July 2 - September 9, 2016 | Calais (France)

Cracking Art animals are invading the city of Calais from the 2nd of July to the 9th of September creating an extraordinary art-itinerary through the most characteristic spots of the city: Grand Theatre, Place de l’Hôtel de Ville, Place d ‘Armes, Tour du Guet, Plage and others.

More than 250 artworks appears on the streets of Calais as a tribute to the city citizens and visitors: this urban form of art gives to creativity a colorful and playful aurea able to seduce both young and elder people. Wolves, snails, meerkats, tropical fish and swallows seem to multiply and interact with the surronding architectures in a peaceful, though ironic, way.

During the exhibition period a fund-raising will be established to raise support for the restoration of Notre-Dame de Calais: Cracking Art mini-sculptures will be available at the special price of 20 €.
