Art galleries Périgord

In 1970 Pierre Shasmoukine invested this forest area to compose, over time, a set of creations on two hectares: 3 courses of works in nature and 8 indoor galleries, which are 600 works of kinetic, unusual surrealist art, naive art, facilities, land-art, humorous conceptual (fixed ideas to put on the mental door provided for this purpose...). Pierre Shasmoukine welcomes visitors in his inspiration, his breathing and his personal creations alongside those of guest artists. The visit time of these plastics follies is unlimited: in summer, you can discover the site in the afternoon, plan to stay on site in the evening on the free picnic area, and fill your eyes at night because the night tour is another magic... You can even stay the night in a guest room. This different world is indescribable, the best is yet to immerse yourself in the heart of this unique place, which, like its creator, seems straight out of a short story by Tolstoï. This geo-concept, ecological before the hour, is a multi-art field. Children, particularly, will find the keys to imaginary world. Over time, the village has deteriorated. With his sister, the artist launched a call to make it a place to stay and exhibition for young artists.

In the 70's, Pascal Magis, painter, had already installed his studio in this house. By opening it to the public, he was a pioneer in Meyrals. He died in 2011, and his niece Céline, with the consent of her aunt, decided to take over the studio in the spirit of Pascal, which then became a full-fledged art gallery, where we find of course the works of Magis, but also those of other contemporary artists. A varied selection, a mixture of old paintings where Pascal's painting explodes and comes to meet you and his more recent paintings
