Since 2007, every two years, the Galeries Nomades program—supported by the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes Region—offers artists from the five regional art schools (Annecy, Clermont-Ferrand, Grenoble/Valence, Lyon, Saint-Étienne) the opportunity to receive support for the production of artworks and the organization of their first solo exhibition, in partnership with creation and exhibition venues across the region.

In 2025, Galeries Nomades will take place in the Savoie Mont Blanc area, at the Maison forte de Hautetour in Saint-Gervais-les-Bains and at the CURIOX, Centre d’art et de rencontres in Ugine, both members of the Altitudes Network – Contemporary Art in Alpine Regions.

Before the exhibitions, each artist is hosted in a live-in studio at Moly-Sabata/Albert Gleizes Foundation to prepare their project.

An issue of Semaine, a weekly contemporary art magazine published by Immédiats, will be dedicated to the four exhibitions and released in November 2025.

The IAC Friends, committed to supporting emerging artists, also back the Galeries Nomades program.

Galeries Nomades serves several core goals of the IAC: to provide long-term support for artists’ research and production, to offer guidance, to help them integrate into the contemporary art network, and to contribute to their professional development. In this way, Galeries Nomades plays an active role in fostering artistic creation across the regional territory.
