Arles Arte & Cultura

Arles mette in mostra una cronologia della storia creativa, che inizia con il Teatro Romano del I secolo e le vaste collezioni archeologiche del Musée de l'Arles antique. L'evoluzione artistica della città prosegue presso la Fondation Vincent Van Gogh e il complesso contemporaneo LUMA Arles, caratterizzato dall'iconica torre di Frank Gehry. Spazi più piccoli come la Galerie de Poche e le sale industriali riconvertite di Les Forges offrono spazio alla fotografia e all'artigianato locale, mentre cinema e teatri indipendenti sostengono la scena delle arti performative della città.
