Driven by the energy of CULBUTO , which positions itself here not as Commissioner but as "catalyst", AD HOC will be based on the values ??of sharing, of exchange and of dialogue.</p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>During the residency </strong>, the group will provide guest artists all the necessary tools to carry out their work : space , materials, but also technical knowledge and experiences will be shared in a collective benevolence. The project AD HOC relies on the willingness to open up possibilities so that the projects of each artist are carried out beyond their prior goals.</p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Culbuto1-1436175634" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/216397/CULBUTO1-1436175634.jpg"></p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>After this time of collaboration, the AD HOC exhibition</strong> will present the works produced: without an exhibition plan and without a manifesto, it will present in situ and completely new productions. AD HOC will be deployed in all areas of La Station, exploring the surrounding area, and will reach the limits of this brownfield land - a no man's land to occupy and a playground to explore.</p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>For the opening night,</strong> CULBUTO has invited the MoïMoï collective, a multidisciplinary group involved in music and contemporary art, to program a concert to celebrate the project.</p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>Meanwhile , the Collective CULBUTO </strong>will realize an evolving sculpture, <strong>the Culbuto tree</strong>, setting in motion a Washingtonia palm 7 to 8 meters high. A first version of this work was performed in 2013 at the Villa Garigula, in Georgia:  the founding project of CULBUTO, it stands as the expression of the working process of this group .</p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Culbutogarikula-1437481704" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/220003/culbutogarikula-1437481704.jpg"></p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>AD HOC will also be a stop on the Beuys on Tour project of artists Ackroyd &amp; Harvey:</strong> on the occasion of the international conference on Climate Change, COP21, and supported by the NA FUND, this project will present the work Beuys Acorn and propose talks about climate change (in partnership with the art school Villa Arson).</p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>TO LEARN MORE ABOUT THE CULBUTO COLLECTIVE :</strong></p> <p>  </p> <p> The CULBUTO Collective is composed of six young artists from Villa Arson: Aurélien Cornut-Gentille, Mathilde Fages, Guillaume Gouerou, Paul Le Bras, Vivien Roubaud and Ugo Schiavi. Its activity is based on a spirit of working together and sharing experiences. Occasionally, members meet to work together on ambitious projects. Invited in 2013 to the Garikula residency (Georgia), they pulled a tree out of its natural environment to give it an independent stand and sway in the image of a culbuto toy. Placed on a concrete platform, the shaft is pushed and moved by the wind. From this work, they draw the name of their group: CULBUTO. The toy represents oscillation and research.</p> <p>  </p> <p> In 2014, the group has reconvened for the show 'Gestalt VS Gangstagave' in the windows of the Modern Art Museum in Nice (MAMAC): they showcased a piece of the hinterland of Nice, having carved out a portion of the landscape equivalent in length to that of the exhibition space available. This ecosystem (thyme, weeds, dirt, small stones, shotgun shell, piece of beehive ... and car wreck) survives thanks to lamps, fans and an irrigation system that keep alive these decorative elements. This sculpture, Ex situ / in vivo is currently installed on the forecourt of La Station and will soon be exhibited at the Biennale of Sologne.</p> <p> <a href="http://www.collectifculbuto.com" target="_blank">www.collectifculbuto.com</a></p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Gestlat2-1437481668" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/220001/gestlat2-1437481668.jpg"></p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>MORE ABOUT LA STATION:</strong></p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong><img alt="Plans_et_images_des_salles_expo_la_station-1436352109" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/216966/Plans_et_images_des_salles_expo_la_station-1436352109.jpg"></strong></p> <p>  </p> <p> La Station is the place of operation of the STARTER Association. The aim of this association is to defend and promote art in its most contemporary instances.</p> <p>  </p> <p> Founded in 1996, the association moved in 2009 to the old slaughterhouses of the city of Nice. <strong>It offers 1000 m2 dedicated to contemporary art, consisting of exhibit and workshop spaces</strong>. A dozen artists working there participate in the life, organization and maintenance of such an undertaking.</p> <p> Through its exhibition program, the Station offers favorable conditions for initiating the most contemporary projects: younger artists find the opportunity to run their businesses  in professional surroundings, and more experienced artists push their most experimental projects. Through this intergenerational programming, La Station positions itself as a professional platform; it provides a tool connecting the artists with the reality of artistic activity and offers them visibility among viewers and art professionals.</p> <p> <a href="http://www.lastation.org" target="_blank">www.lastation.org</a></p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong><img alt="_images_grd_salles_expo_la_station-1436352254" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/216968/_images_grd_salles_expo_la_station-1436352254.jpg"> <img alt="Images_des_salles_expo_la_station-1436352280" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/216969/images_des_salles_expo_la_station-1436352280.jpg"> <img alt="Plan_grd_salle_expo_la_station-1436352354" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/216970/Plan_grd_salle_expo_la_station-1436352354.jpg"> <img alt="Plans_des_salles_expo_la_station-1436352138" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/216967/Plans_des_salles_expo_la_station-1436352138.jpg"> </strong></p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>La Station is in partnership with :</strong></p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Capture_d_e_cran_2015-07-08_a__13.01.10-1436353541" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/216973/Capture_d_e_cran_2015-07-08_a__13.01.10-1436353541.png"></p> <p> <img alt="Capture_d_e_cran_2015-07-08_a__13.02.08-1436353570" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/216974/Capture_d_e_cran_2015-07-08_a__13.02.08-1436353570.png"></p>
