Sentiers Rouges (Red trails)
Cultural project for the Southern Luxembourg Territory

Laboratory working in the region to take a critical look at its cultural heritage and industry through contemporary art.

Each year a range of young artists from the Greater Region is selected in collaboration with contemporary art institutions. These artists have undertaken to produce a work that questions the Southern territory, through a given theme and through the prism of contemporary art. These works are placed along Sentiers Rouges (Red Trails), a network of marked trails belonging to the Luxembourg Railways and linking these stations through Southern cities. Thus, year after year, an open-air museum will continue to expand.

Activity	Description	Location	Participants	Period	Duration
Logging the status and maintenance of open-air museums	The red trail and works of art that are exposed require regular maintenance. The idea is to form several teams of walkers who could, during one day, walk the various trails and make an inventory (photos) of trails and works of art, which often fall victims to bad weather or acts of vandalism.	South of Luxembourg (exact location TBD)	2 to 4 people per trail (there are 6) of approx 10km each	flexible (once a year)	1/2 day

Les Ateliers – Sustainable Creations
Okkasiounsbuttik – Furniture for solidarity

The concept of Les Ateliers includes the creation, recovery and transformation of furniture and an online store selling second hand furniture.

The two complementary components of the project Les Ateliers follow a pattern of responsible consumption and sustainable development, as both advocate the recuperation and reuse of items.

Les Ateliers add an artistic touch to it, through the aesthetics of their creations, but also through a participatory component to engage in creative activities both artists and local people.
Les Ateliers are a place where curiosity, intuition and spontaneity are in order. Introductory creation courses are organized in collaboration with local artists and allow everyone to try out new artistic techniques and discover new creative approaches. These courses are also intended to be thought provoking , to propose new working methods and to encourage encounters
between workers and cultural players as well as intergenerational meetings.

THEATRE FORUM

Take the stage for (ex) change

The Theatre Forum is a form of participatory theater that seeks to inform, but mostly involve the public in its reflection on themes of society.

Born in Brazil and widely distributed in Europe, this discipline is quite innovative in Luxembourg. It opens a type of original encounter between art and the general public, while promoting a public debate.
Through short pieces that deal with problem situations of everyday business and life Theatre Forum allows to mix different perspectives and seek solutions together. It’s a theater of all sorts of universes that can travel everywhere with an infinite number of topics.

Activities
Our theater forum can mount a show for your business, which deals with a problem you want addressed in a more casual manner. A multitude of themes can be worked out by Theatre Forum. Humor and energy are always appropriate to address the most sensitive topics. Thus, interventions are always held in a relaxed spirit that enables to stimulate reflection
without opening the door to moral judgments.

How does it work?
Our actors begin to search for topics illustrating the problematic situation you want to handle, particularly by taking testimonials. What follows is the creative work, writing, directing and improvisation.
Lasting 15 to 20 minutes, the produced piece is played once before the public, after which spectators are invited to interact to get things moving. The goal is not to find the single solution but to experiment collectively all possible answers.

Conditions:
LOCATION: to be agreed
PARTICIPANTS: 50 people. max
