Dire & Faire is a cycle of events, a laboratory of relationships to generate moments of art in public spaces. From September to December 2015, 8 evenings took place in concomitance with the biennale of art of Lyon.

Anyone can take this text and transmit it in the public space.

The testimonies of these relational moments are also published on the website : http://dire-et-faire.fr/home.html
