La Fabrique: Beyond the Temporary

About La Fabrique

La Fabrique: Beyond the Temporary is a collaborative cultural initiative developed through a partnership between Riyadh Art and the French Institute. Designed to encourage meaningful, long-term artistic relationships, the program moves beyond short-lived exchanges to focus on sustained creative collaboration. Grounded in shared artistic values, La Fabrique places co-creation at the heart of its mission, bringing together Saudi and French artists and audiences in an ongoing cultural conversation.

Hosted at the Riyadh Art Hub in the JAX District, the program runs from January 22 to February 14, 2026. Throughout this period, La Fabrique serves as a dynamic space for experimentation, community involvement, and international artistic exchange—where art is shaped through dialogue, collaboration, and context.

The experience is presented across two interlinked spaces, each offering a distinct yet complementary perspective on artistic practice and cultural interaction. Together, they invite visitors to witness how creative ideas grow and transform when cultures come together to build something lasting.
