Thalie Art Foundation is a private foundation whose mission is to support contemporary creation dedicated to societal themes, thus fostering active and collaborative artistic practices in order to create social ties and to rise awareness. This is also to live and “bring to life” a new approach to contemporary art by being closer to artists and work processes.

As an artist’s residency devoted to innovation and engagement in the public sphere, ThalieLab  is both an incubator and a platform for the production and dissemination of work that resonates with contemporay social issues. 

In January 2018, the foundation will open ThalieLab, a private initiative of Nathalie Guiot, a collector, patron, curator and author. ThalieLab works on four axis: production support, artists residency, mediation and  arts education program.
