Digital creation and Laval’s heritage

In addition to the ART&VR Gallery, an OFF section in Laval’s old town showcases the area’s artistic diversity by inviting recognized artists, students, researchers and collectives to take over various sites. This dynamic allows emerging projects to be exhibited more freely, accompanying a particular theme, hybridizing different practices and opening the door to artistic exploration. The program also aims to encourage partnerships, by inviting academic, artistic or industrial organizations to take over a site and/or organize events in line with Recto VRso’s values.

Several partner universities

Since the beginning of the Recto VRso festival, several universities have invested Laval’s emblematic sites, such as the Bains-Douches and the Musée Ecole de la Perrine, to present research-creation and digital art to the general public.

This year’s the OFF will take place at Le Quarante, Laval’s new cultural center, and will feature artworks from several schools: Université Paris 8 Vincennes – Saint-Denis, Université Paul-Valéry Montpellier 3, Université Rennes 2, National Tsing Hua University, Université Catholique de l’Ouest – Angers, etc.
