The Portico presents the work of contemporary artists, both confirmed and also emerging, it offers a vast panorama of current artistic production, allowing the public to confront the work of creation and perpetual rewriting of the history of the ‘art.
Open space on the issues that inhabit the actors of the art world, Le Portique, like a laboratory of ideas, questions the supports, the creative processes: it is a space, where artists, in situ, can invent and experiment with new forms.
Room texts, documents and mediators accompany the discovery of the exhibitions, providing the public with keys and tools to deepen the visit and better understand the issues and challenges of contemporary creation. Openings open to all and open at night at each exhibition.
The Portico has an agreement with the Ministry of Culture – Drac de Normandie, the Normandy Region, the Seine-Maritime Department and the City of Le Havre.
