Edition 2025 — Hors Pistes
Hors Champs — 'What if we flew away?'
For the first time in its history, the Hors Pistes festival left the walls of the Centre Pompidou to become Hors Champs, a touring festival. This inaugural edition unfolded from May 17 to June 15, 2025, in two locations in the Oise department: the Quadrilatère — Art Center of Beauvais and the village of Hermes.
Theme and Program
Under the theme of flight, the edition explored the troubling blend of reality and imagination, questioning rural landscapes, fantastic elements, and the emergence of the extraordinary within village routines. The program included:
- 'Hors Champs' Exhibition in both locations
- Film Screenings including The Spirit of the Beehive and Happy as Lazzaro
- Performances by Compagnie Gáubi
- Outdoor Screenings (June 14)
