Founded in 2005, based in Marseille, led by artists, residents and activists of the Belle de Mai.
Multi-media company working since 2016 on Art en Commun.

Organon Art Cie’s works, as the result of collaborative workshops, are made up of collective and poetic narratives collected through situations, meetings and exchanges involving amateurs. Echoing their current initiative in Marseille, their project is presented in the former union building of the Fagor factories and is carried out with pupils from the Gabriel Rosset secondary school as part of the Veduta programme. Based on a rewriting of Les Suppliantes, a Greek tragedy by Aeschylus, the project revolves around the reinvention of the conditions and possible forms of the collective. By creating a new form of political association they call “community of singularities”, the artists leave room for the expression of the effects of Aeschylus’ narrative on the participants. Their work invites the audience to consider the creative process as important as the work itself.
