Culture
04420, Draix, Alpes-de-Haute-Provence, France
Refuge d'Art "La Ferme Belon" is a restored farmhouse located at an elevation of 860 meters in Draix, Alpes-de-Haute-Provence, France. The building is part of the "Refuge d'Art" project initiated by artist Andy Goldsworthy, which combines contemporary art with the preservation of rural heritage in the Haute-Provence Geopark. Goldsworthy's installation features thirteen white stone arches on the ground floor, designed to evoke a sense of movement and light within the confined space. The site also holds historical significance, having been a Resistance stronghold during World War II. Visitors can access the refuge year-round by obtaining a key from the Musée Gassendi in Digne-les-Bains. (provence-alpes-cotedazur.com)
