QUID Art contemporain
EXPRESSION’s activities are held in French.
QUID Art contemporain is an opportunity for an encounter to raise awareness of contemporary art. It has three versions: instilled, informal, and curious. For each exhibition, one of these versions is chosen.
What is QUID?
From the Latin quid, which means “what,” the word “quid” is an interrogative adverb, which is used in a question. It means “What is this?” QUID Art contemporain means “What is contemporary art?”
