Associated Partners

ARTE

Arte Studio Lab has accompanied LE BAL and La Fabrique du Regard in the conception and the technical development of ERSILIA since its creation. Under Lumni, a pedagogical, cultural and scientific resources portal, LE BAL proposes an expanded access to ERSILIA designed for second cycle teachers and their students.

 

Cinéma des cinéastes

Since 2010, Le Cinéma des Cinéastes has hosted the « Cycle Cinéma » linked with the current exhibition at LE BAL, which enables the audience to discover a high-level selection of rare and experimental films in one of the only cinema to be equipped of a 35mm projector.
Le Cinéma des Cinéastes is also a partner of the program Mon Oeil ! of La Fabrique du Regard. Each year, projections are organized there with young people involved in the educational programmes.

L'ÉCOLE DES HAUTES ÉTUDES EN SCIENCES SOCIALES

Each year, l'École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales hosts the Fall seminar of LE BAL which aimed to explore the issues of contemporary images and to understand the idea of visual “document” in its whole diversity. This collaboration has prevailed since 2015 with the Rounds, organized in the heart of each exhibition at LE BAL. These Rounds use a radiophonic format in order to create a conversation between an artist and a social researcher. Theses dialogues are all about building a common thinking regarding the limits, the forms and the potential of an image based relationship to the world.

LE BAL is involved in the ImagesIN project, led by the École nationale supérieure de la photographie alongside Jeu de Paume and Les Rencontres d'Arles.

La Fémis is a partner of Mon Œil !. Each year, projections are organized there. Every year since 2017, the school hosted the restitution exhibition of works by the young students.

TRAM

Since 2018, LE BAL has been an active member of the TRAM network in order to collectively carry strong values and objectives: the networking of territories and ideas with a priority focus on the most remote audiences.
