WELCOME

Welcome to the second edition of Adelaide French Festival, a celebration of creativity and collaboration between France and Australia.

French culture has helped shape the modern world and, enriched by its great ethnic diversity, France continues to be a leading creative powerhouse.

To align with the State’s critical relationship with Brittany, Adelaide Festival Centre has been working closely with local government, arts and tourism officials in Brittany to bring a Breton flavour to the 2019 French Festival.

Please join us at Adelaide Festival Centre for a weekend full of arts and entertainment on the riverside.

Douglas Gautier AM CEO & Artistic Director Adelaide Festival Centre

South Australia and France share a friendly association dating back to the peaceful meeting in 1802 of Matthew Flinders and Nicolas Baudin at Encounter Bay. Our maritime connection has grown into a powerful economic partnership as we prepare to build the next generation of Australian Defence Force submarines in Adelaide.

We could not build this relationship with France without including a celebration of the arts of this treasured European culture. The South Australian Government is pleased to support the second edition of Adelaide French Festival, showcasing a weekend of music, theatre, dance, art, food and family fun.

I look forward to celebrating all things French, particularly those that focus on the unique culture of Brittany, our sister region in France.

The Honourable Steven Marshall MP Premier of South Australia

PICASSO:

THE VOLLARD SUITE The Vollard Suite is Pablo Picasso’s most celebrated series of etchings. Comprised of 100 works and produced between 1930 and 1937, the suite represents a critical point in Picasso’s career and contains many of the abiding themes in his work, including his self-representation as the minotaur. The Suite was made in Paris at the Château de Boisgeloup – a country property near Paris acquired by him in 1930. The film Blood of a Poet (1930) by Picasso’s friend and collaborator, Jean Cocteau, will be screened alongside the exhibition.

“...etchings that lay bare his imagination and his creative energy like nothing else he ever did.”
