"Childhood stories” exhibition at the Fine Arts Museum in Bordeaux

[Wall-hanging] “Childhood stories”, an exhibition to see and hear

As a preamble to the exhibition 'Sage comme une image? L'enfance dans l'œil des artistes 1790-1850' (July 10-November 3, 2025, Galerie des Beaux-Arts), this exhibition on the theme of childhood features some 50 paintings, sculptures, medals and graphic works from the museum's collections, from the 17th to the 20th century.
Conceived by the Service des publics, in collaboration with the Centre Hospitalier de Cadillac and the EHPAD Le Grand Bon Pasteur in Bordeaux, this project gives a voice to patients, residents and senior citizens: their childhood memories, collected during writing workshops, accompany the exhibition in the form of audio narratives and audio descriptions, to be listened to throughout your visit...
Use your smartphone (via the museum's website) or an audioguide to discover these testimonials free of charge.
