The encounter between art and shop windows may seem surprising—but in fact, artists have been collaborating with shopkeepers since the late 19th century to present their work in new and unexpected ways.
A shop window or interior space offers a unique setting for artistic display, blurring the boundaries between inside and outside, private and public.

In 2025, Le 19, Crac celebrates 30 years of exhibitions within its walls. To mark this milestone, the center is partnering with 10 local shopkeepers and Hérilab, the makerspace at the Héricourt media library, to present works by 11 artists who have played a key role in its history.
This autumn, discover 11 brand-new artworks created specially for the occasion and displayed in local shops—inviting you into a poetic and unexpected encounter with art.
