Bordeaux Episode 07 3 Bordeaux Art Galleries

This post introduces 3 Bordeaux art galleries, the long-standing Museum des Beaux Arts (Museum of Fine Arts), the always surprising Musée des Arts Contemporains (Museum of Modern Art) and the Bassin des Lumières, France’s largest digital art gallery where parts of the World War II submarine base have been re-purposed to provide a new way of  enjoying art in an unexpected setting.  And finally, a little about the Bordeaux-born artist, Rosa Bonheur, 19th century animal painter extraordinaire who has recently been enjoying something of a renaissance.   Reading Suggestion Rosa Bonheur by Sandrine Andrews (in French) Useful Links Bordeaux Museum of Fine Arts  Bordeaux Museum of Contemporary Art    Bassins des Lumières     City Breaks: all the history and culture you'd research for yourself if you had the time!
