Jean Prouvé Cultural Centre

Issoire

The Jean Prouvé Centre presents the donation of Kim En Joong, an internationally renowned artist (paintings and ceramics) and hosts a temporary art exhibition every summer (see “agenda”).

Formerly a Benedictine nuns’ convent and later a commercial court, the Centre d’art Jean-Prouvé is now dedicated to contemporary art. It bears the name of the great architect innovator in industrial construction and the use of aluminium who worked in Issoire. An exhibition was dedicated to him here in 2015.
