la maison artist in residence program provides an intimate gathering and work situation for most diverse disciplines in the arts. The quiet and free spirited ‘maison’ with it’ s gardens is located in a tiny village between Strasbourg and Baden-Baden, in Alsace, northern France. The space in middle of nature wants to connect artists in research of personal or global answers of a positively maturing world. In collaboration with art institutions like the Arts & Nature Social Club talks with leaders in science, arts and entrepreneurship are initiated to discuss key questions of our time in context of the exhibitions created during the artist residencies.
