Programming exhibitions
La Criée produces three temporary solo or group exhibitions a year. The space, which is transformed according to artistic projects, presents works - most often produced for the occasion - by emerging and established artists working in Brittany, France and internationally.
It also co-produces several off-site exhibitions each season, in Rennes, Brittany, France and abroad.

Associating artists
Each season, La Criée associates one or more artists/curators with its programming. This collaborative format allows us to experiment with a new way of working over the long term, and to be as close as possible to the creative process and the movements of thought.
