Thank you
Watching the Glacier Disappear relies on art to tell the truth without alarm, to get closer to it without despair, and to look it in the face to imagine possible futures. The association Aux arts les glaciers! would like to express its gratitude to all those who were willing to become involved. To all our partners, support committees, institutions, foundations and associations, and above all to the first people involved, the audiences and the artists: a heartfelt thank you!

Association
The association Aux arts les glaciers! was founded to better understand and highlight the perception of artists in relation to a changing world through exhibitions, performances and various events. The focus is on how they experience and narrate change and on how they bring their views into line with the environmental upheavals affecting human societies today
