From its inception, PICT’ART EXPOS has worked to create opportunities for both emerging and established artists to showcase their work in collective exhibitions. These exhibitions are not just displays of talent—they are living spaces of dialogue and discovery where visitors can engage with diverse artistic perspectives. By organizing these public events, the association bridges the gap between creators and the community, encouraging mutual understanding, appreciation, and cultural exchange.

At the heart of PICT’ART EXPOS lies a commitment to the idea that art should not be confined to museums or private collections, but should instead thrive in open, inclusive spaces. The association is dedicated to bringing art into everyday life—into town halls, cultural centers, schools, and public venues—so that everyone, regardless of background or experience, can share in its beauty and emotional power.

Our Mission

Our mission is to promote artistic expression and cultural enrichment through accessible and inclusive exhibitions. PICT’ART EXPOS strives to:

• Encourage Artistic Discovery: We provide artists with opportunities to exhibit their work, experiment with new forms, and gain visibility within the local and regional art community.

• Foster Cultural Exchange: Through collective exhibitions, we bring together people from different generations, backgrounds, and artistic disciplines, creating a vibrant dialogue that enriches both creators and audiences.

• Support Local Talent: We believe in showcasing the diversity and creativity of our region, offering a platform where regional artists can share their passion and contribute to the cultural vitality of Luçon and its surroundings.

• Promote Education and Awareness: By collaborating with schools, local institutions, and cultural partners, we help younger generations discover the joy of art, encouraging creativity, critical thinking, and self-expression.

Our mission extends beyond organizing exhibitions—it’s about cultivating an enduring appreciation for art as a universal language that connects people and strengthens communities.

Our Vision

PICT’ART EXPOS envisions a world where art is a natural part of daily life—where creative expression is celebrated as a fundamental force for connection, reflection, and progress. We aspire to build a lasting cultural legacy in the Vendée region by becoming a recognized hub for artistic collaboration and innovation.

Our long-term vision includes:

• Expanding Our Reach: We aim to organize larger, more diverse exhibitions that include national and international artists while continuing to highlight regional talent.

• Creating Sustainable Artistic Networks: By fostering partnerships with cultural institutions, municipalities, and other associations, we hope to strengthen a dynamic and supportive artistic ecosystem.

• Developing Educational Initiatives: We plan to establish workshops, conferences, and art discovery programs to engage young audiences and encourage the next generation of artists.

• Encouraging Artistic Dialogue: We envision PICT’ART EXPOS as a meeting point where art transcends barriers—between disciplines, between creators and viewers, and between local and global cultures.

Our vision is guided by the conviction that art has the power to inspire empathy, nurture imagination, and drive positive change within society.

Our Values

The foundation of PICT’ART EXPOS rests on a set of shared values that shape every initiative we undertake. These values reflect our dedication to inclusion, creativity, and community engagement.

• Creativity: We celebrate imagination in all its forms and encourage artistic freedom as a source of personal and collective growth.

• Inclusion: Art belongs to everyone. We strive to make our exhibitions accessible and welcoming to all audiences, regardless of age, background, or experience.

• Collaboration: Our strength lies in teamwork—among artists, volunteers, and community partners—working together to achieve a shared cultural vision.

• Respect: We honor the individuality of every artist and the diversity of their creative expressions, promoting an atmosphere of openness and mutual understanding.

• Commitment to Excellence: We aim for the highest quality in every project, from curating exhibitions to supporting artists and engaging the public.

• Sustainability: We recognize the importance of cultural and environmental responsibility in our operations, seeking ways to minimize waste and encourage sustainable practices in art production and display.

These values define who we are and guide every artistic journey we embark upon.

Our Impact

Over the years, PICT’ART EXPOS has become more than an art organization—it has grown into a cultural movement that contributes to the vibrancy of Luçon’s artistic life. Through our exhibitions, hundreds of visitors have discovered local talent and formed new connections with art and artists.

We have seen firsthand how art brings people together: how a painting can spark a conversation between strangers, how a photograph can inspire a new perspective, and how a sculpture can evoke emotions that words cannot express. These shared moments are what drive us forward.

Our impact is measured not only by the number of exhibitions we organize but also by the community we build—artists who support one another, volunteers who dedicate their time to cultural service, and audiences who return year after year to experience the beauty of creativity.
