L'Expressoir Artist Residency
Organization
Marnay-sur-Seine, France
L'Expressoir Artist Residency invites emerging and established artists of all disciplines for a time and space away from their usual environments. We provide an opportunity for artists to reflect, research, create, and present in the small, rural village of Marnay Sur Seine, France.
L'Expressoir allows regional, national, and international artists the opportunity to exchange professional and emotive
approaches towards new experiences and aesthetic realities. Located in the historic village of Marnay Sur Seine
(1 hour by train from Paris) L'Expressoir emphasizes the connection between the local community and the diverse
artists this village attracts. This residency encourages projects promoting the interaction and relationships between
different cultures worldwide.
