Summer is just around the corner and the Darling Foundry is already busy concocting an ambitious project on the square that is opened to the public in front of its premises during the summer season. In parallel to the inauguration of the artwork Sans titre (Enseignes pour une émeute) by Antoine Nessi, the Place Publique will keep the performances cycles going on every Thursday evening. Thanks to an active crowdfunding campaign, the Place Publique 2015 ended with the realisation of the impressive Mirador by Acapulco.
