Comment

Les Jardins des Pilotes is dedicated to the presentation and production of outstanding pieces of art, whether as installations, performances, solo and group exhibitions, or publications such as this one. The gardens we have in mind are delimited spaces which visitors can enter in order to have, and share, a particular experience. These can be physical spaces, indoor or outdoor, but they can also be events in time, porous areas which have in common a certain experiential consistency and intensity.
