Graulhetin the town of the same name, is at a turning point. The organizers have decided to change the dates (from summer to fall) and to shorten its duration (now four days). And also fewer artists. But that will not lower the quality of the event. On the contrary. The objective is the same: “to present professional quality works to the general public”.

Inside and outside

But the Forum space will not be the only one occupied. Public space will be too. And longer. With the monumental works of Tarnais Casimir Ferrer. They have already started to move. A crowdfunding campaign has also been launched to finance this weight transport. Truck, crane, artistic service provider for the installation… L’Eveil Artistique Graulhetois asks for 3,000 euros.

Born in 1946 in Trébas, Casimir Ferrer is exhibited worldwidefrom New York to Sarajevo via Canada, Norway or Germany. Many of his works are visible in the region, whether in Tanus in Tarn on the observation area of ​​the Viaduc du Viaur, Castelnau-de-Lévis, or in Villefranche-de-Rouergue (Aveyron).
