It is with great sadness that Manifesta 13 Marseille announces today that, due to the new national French restrictions announced yesterday Wednesday 28th of October by President Emmanuel Macron, Hedwig Fijen, the President of the Foundation Manifesta 13, in consultation with the Mayor of Marseille Michèle Rubirola, the Ministry of Culture, the Préfecture des Bouches-du-Rhône, the Conseil Départemental des Bouches-du-Rhône, and the DRAC Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur, has had to decide to close the 13th edition of Manifesta effective as of today, Thursday the 29th of October 2020 at 18:00.
The last exhibition of the Invisible Archives, originally opening tomorrow, will exceptionally open tonight at Tiers QG from 17:00 to 20:30.
Within the next days, Manifesta 13 will announce how visitors of Manifesta 13 can still experience the biennial’s exhibitions through a digital format. Should certain projects that are part of the collateral programme Les Parallèles du Sud reopen after the national lockdown, Manifesta 13’s team will be sure to inform you.
We are incredibly grateful and thankful to all our partners, participants, curators, collaborators, team and board members for all their hard work and dedication, resulting in the biennial still having been open to the public from the 28th of August until the 29th of October 2020.
