Presentation
CS LAB#3 about Co-design & Design Thinking
Circostrada, in partnership with the Centre International des Arts en Mouvement (CIAM) were pleased to welcome Circostrada members and CIAM partners to the third edition of the CS LAB.
At Aix-en-Provence (France), between 27th and 29th of June, participants dived into the practice of Co-design & Design thinking, a strongly inclusive, formal method of creative collaboration to build innovative solutions for an improved future! The session was moderated and lead by Andrew Bullen from Creative Cooperative and was completed with a special intervention of the philosopher Humberto Schwab and his Socratic Dialogue, a method to change you way of thinking.
Those three days were a singular occasion to be inspired; an experience to challenge yourself and to get by your assumptions and to confront your difficulties. It was design to help you develop creative thinking to face your professional challenges in a different way.
You wanna know more? A lab report will be out soon, with a new format and illustrations made by Fania Livio, who had followed the full workshop with us!

“Château La Coste is a vineyard where wine, art & architecture live in harmony”. Indeed, in this domain you will be able to enjoy a walk through wooded hilltops and valleys, alongside olive groves and vine fields, discovering the many installations of contemporary art and architecture on your way. You can also visit the Tadao Ando art centre, an extraordinary architectural experience of light and space in nature.

For more information: https://chateau-la-coste.com/en/
- Exhibition of Djeff at la Fondation Vasarely
The foundation, a building of 5000 square metre, built by the architect Victor Vasarely, explores through guest exhibitions, symposia for visiting artists and all sorts of other special events, themes around new technologies such as computer-generated art. It is currently hosting a temporary retrospective exhibition of the plastic artist Djeff.
"From the world of retro gaming to the development of more complex polymorphic installations, his work focuses on the human and his condition within the limits of the speculation of his own environment. It already probes our apprehension of the world through technological prism and more particularly through the hijacking of video games and gameplay."
Schedule: open every day from 10am to 6pm

- Exhibition of Nicholas de Staël at L'Hôtel de Caumont à Aix-en-Provence
The Hôtel de Caumont is a mansion built "between courtyard and garden"; an architectural design that appeared in Paris in the 16th century, a château and its park on an urban scale. The hotel is hosting a temporary exhibition of Nicholas de Staël, presenting 71 paintings and 26 drawings from prestigious international public and private collections. This exhibition focuses on the Provençal period of Nicolas de Staël’s work between July 1953 and June 1954.
