Riviera Creative Factory

Born as "La Galerie des Pins" in 2017, it becomes the "Riviera Creative Factory" in May 2020. From a private art gallery, it developed into a place of creative work and exchange.

Located in a beautiful villa with pool in the middle of wonderful huge pine trees on the French Riviera near Biot this is a very peaceful, inspiring place. In the middle between Nice and Cannes, it is the perfect place for an exposition or a workshop with the emphasis on exchange and dialogue.

Many artists, photographers, writers, painters spent some hours or days talking and exchanging ideas, finding new sources of inspiration and creativity. The particular atmosphere, silence, splendid light and colours and breath-taking setting you can find inner peace and inspiration.

The Factory regularly hosts expositions and workshops, ranging from photography over aquarelles to lyrical and rock music. Access is by invitation only.

If you are interested to participate or organize an event please send an email to photo@piaparolin.com.
