About us
Triangle-Astérides is a center for contemporary art based in Marseilles (France) at La Friche la Belle de Mai, a cultural cooperative located in a former tobacco factory, since 1994. Triangle-Astérides articulates a rigorous program of exhibitions with research residencies for artists from French and international scenes, associate artists and professionals for the local scene, to which are added events, editorial projects and a thorough outreach to all audiences.
Mindful of each individual’s needs, Triangle-Astérides ensures, to the best of its ability, the accessibility of all its programs for the public as well as for the invited artists.
Triangle-Astérides is part of international networks (notably the Triangle Network, which initiated the founding of Triangle-Astérides which remains a member while operating independently), as well as national and local networks (with the merger, in 2018, of Triangle France and Astérides). Connecting these different scales is at the heart of all its activities.
Triangle-Astérides is a non-profit association supported by the Ministry of Culture—Drac Provence-Alpes-Côte-d'Azur, the City of Marseille, the South Region and the Bouches du Rhône Department.
Team: Victorine Grataloup (Director and chief curator), Florence Gosset (Director of administration and finances), Marie de Gaulejac (Curator, head of Residency and Associate Artists), Camille Ramanana Rahary (Editorial manager, Residency and Associate Artists coordinator).
