Introduction
The Espace Giono is a place of remembrance for this writer, and an exhibition space for the works of Lalley painter Edith Berger.
A path invites you to discover the artistic universes of Edith Berger and Jean Giono through the landscapes of the Trièves.
The Espace Giono is located in the very place where Giono lived during his various vacations in Lalley. It is a place of memory, where literature and writing play an important role, evoking the Trièves of the land, its farmers and its landscapes, described by Giono in his work.
Works by local painter Edith Berger are also on display.
The Edith Berger-Jean Giono trail invites you to discover the artistic worlds of painter Edith Berger and writer Jean Giono in and around Lalley, through the landscapes of the Trièves.
8 panels, each featuring a work by Edith Berger, accompanied by texts by Jean Giono, are set up along the 4.5km route.
Echoing this is Lalley painter Edith Berger. Her oils and pastels reflect the same themes dear to Giono; her confident brushstrokes and color palette depict everyday life and the human and architectural heritage of Lalley and the surrounding area.
In addition to these permanent exhibitions, there is a space for temporary exhibitions, featuring paintings from here and elsewhere, figurative or contemporary, photos, sculptures and more, by artists from the Trièves.
