Free admission during opening times at the Renoir cultural centre.
The Landscape I Love – From March 1 to April 2, 2025
As part of the Springtime for Rural Youth Arts, a cultural and educational event dedicated to promoting art among young people, the town of Essoyes joins forces with Riceys and Mussy-sur-Seine to showcase an ambitious and universal artistic project led by IMAJ – Center for UNESCO.
This event brings together artistic expressions from children around the world, all united by a shared theme that is both meaningful and inspiring for creative exploration.
Manuel Costa, known as CostaM – From May 3 to June 8, 2025
Manuel Costa, a painter based in Chessy-les-Prés in the Aube region of France, is a French artist celebrated for his vibrant and expressive works, filled with intense colors and rich textures. Born with a deep love for art, Costa is a self-taught artist who has explored various techniques and styles to develop a visual language that is uniquely his own.
Hugo Terracol – From June 21 to August 24, 2025
Known for his evocative and abstract paintings inspired by the principles of Chinese art and philosophy, Hugo Terracol delves into intangible elements such as light, air, and energy. His work stands out for its lyrical quality, often capturing the grandeur of natural landscapes — mountains, winds, and mist — not by directly depicting them but by conveying their essence through emotional abstraction.
Julie Karl – From September 6 to November 2, 2025
A native of the Côte des Bar in Champagne, Julie Karl, also known as Flowers Meadow, is a self-taught artist specializing in the demanding art of watercolor. A mother of three, it was her children who encouraged her to develop her gift for painting, portraying nature in all its forms, particularly the rural landscapes of the beautiful Champagne wine region — reminiscent of a certain Pierre-Auguste Renoir.
