Les Plantamouves

16 février – 4 septembre 2023

 Galerie des enfants, niveau 1

 

Imaginé et conçu par les artistes Yvan Clédat et Coco Petitpierre, le jardin des Plantamouves s'offre comme une sculpture-paysage, un réseau tentaculaire de très grosses tiges colorées en écho aux tuyaux emblématiques du Centre Pompidou. 
Dans ce terrain d’exploration jubilatoire, les jeunes aventuriers sont invités à découvrir des modes originaux de déambulation et d'interconnection par le geste dansé. Des extensions en mousse leur permettent de se métamorphoser, d'inventer de nouvelles manières de se déplacer, bouger, danser, de libérer leur corps en mouvement. 

 

Durée : 45 minutes

La réservation d'un créneau horaire de visite est fortement recommandée.
