"Carnets de chantier" is a graphic exploration of the Musuem of Fine Arts in Tournai by Nicolas Lorent. Modelled on a travel diary and written in a reporter's style, it recounts the day-to-day activities undertaken by the team to preserve and promote the museum's heritage, but which remain invisible to the general public.
If you'd like to follow the progress of a museum undergoing transformation (from the collections site to the renovation and extension works) through the sketches and observations of Nicolas Lorent, we invite you to subscribe to the "Carnets de chantier" newsletter.
We'll be delighted to send you periodic emails (once a month from September 2023) with exclusive news about life at the museum through the unique perspective of this architect and designer. Every quarter, you'll also receive a collectible card by post containing an image from the notebook! You can keep it or send it to someone else.
