Description:
The Collectif la Basse Cour was created in 2005 around Turbul', Nîmes circus school (association call for air) and place of artistic residence. The Collective brings together committed, creative and demanding artists. Each of the 10 companies follows its own artistic line, all united by the field of the new circus. The shows of the Collective are therefore very varied both in their content and in their form, all the circus disciplines are represented in a common spirit of sharing and artistic commitment.
The Collective is an association, which allows it shared governance between all the companies on the principles of collective intelligence. The companies have
grouped together in order to pool their resources to finance an administrative office made up of an administrative officer (social, accounting, communication) and a production officer (position to be filled). The operation of the Collective is based on the principle of solidarity economy. In addition to the activity of the member companies (16 shows in diffusion and 5 in creation), the Collective carries a support system for emerging circus companies: La Fabrique des Arts du cirque and organizes one-off events (2 in 2023) .
