Calendar of our upcoming events

  • Presentation of Alice Kaplan's book Baya ou le grand vernissage +

    Monday, May 13, 2024 | Free of charge and mandatory reservation

    A presentation of Alice Kaplan's new book, Baya ou le grand vernissage, is organized at the Camargo Foundation. In this book, Alice Kaplan unveils the extraordinary destiny of Algerian artist Baya: from the status of an all-purpose maid in colonial Algeria, the teenager rose to stardom; always unexpected and dazzling, she still inspires many artists today.

    Alice Kaplan is laureate of the 2014 Camargo Fellowship and member of the Foundation's Board of Trustees. The event will be moderated by author, historian and sociologist Marie-Pierre Ulloa. A sale of the book will be held by the Préambule bookshop at the end of the event. Free of charge, mandatory reservation.

  • See you in the gardens +

    Saturday, June 1 and Sunday, June 2, 2024

    See you in the gardens is an event organized by the French Ministry of Culture to highlight the rich diversity of parks and gardens, both historic and contemporary, and the preservation of nature cultivated throughout the country. On this occasion, the Fondation Camargo will be inviting the public to discover its Mediterranean garden through guided tours and workshops based on the national 2024 theme: the 5 senses. Free of charge.

  • Restitution of Dorothée Munyaneza’s project, in conversation with residents of the Castellane neighborhood in Marseille +

    Saturday, June 1, 2024, 4pm to 7pm

    For several years, Dorothée Munyaneza, in collaboration with Maya Mihindou, has engaged in a conversation with women from the Castellane district of Marseille. From intimate stories to interwoven voices, she builds sensitive links, brings out words, and puts back at the heart of the city stories that are too seldom listened to. 

    A restitution of this work is organized at the Camargo Foundation. The public will attend a presentation of the project in the presence of its participants, followed by a strolling performance by Dorothée Munyaneza, and an exhibition of editions by Maya Mihindou. The day will end with a convivial moment in the company of all those involved in the project. Free of charge.

  • Concert by Gildaa, Marseille Jazz 5 Continents +

    Sunday June 2, 2024, 9pm | Mandatory reservation

    As part of the Marseille Jazz 5 Continents festival program, a concert by Camille Constantin Aka Gildaa will be held at the Fondation Camargo on June 2 at 9pm. Tickets can be booked on the Marseille Jazz 5 Continents website.

    At the conservatory of dramatic art, Camille Constantin taught herself singing and percussion in addition to her lessons. It was here that she met her alter ego - Gildaa, a fusion of her artistic practices and her dual Franco-Brazilian culture. From there, she went on to write and compose. Gildaa is a rite of passage.

    "In front of Gildaa, you get the feeling of being in front of a jazz diva, a mythological presence with a pure, boundless voice. A Brazilian child witch, an African goddess, a Parisian princess of contemporary music whose madcap wit and multiple heritages savagely and brilliantly clash with our formatted expectations. What she invents today is unique, her energy unheard of, her freedom absolute." Judith Chemla.
