The Chauvet Cave - timeless
From 7 February to 3 May 2026
Public fare : €5.00
With his film La grotte Chauvet, hors du temps (The Chauvet Cave, Timeless), Raphaël Dallaporta takes a contemplative and contemporary look at an archaeological gem that is nearly 36,000 years old.
The artist is one of the few people, apart from scientists, to have been allowed to enter the cave. With the collaboration of the digital creation company on-situ, he has created panoramas that capture the beauty of the place and bring it to life.
This film tells a story that personifies the cave and comments on astonishing images combining reliefs carved out by water infiltration and cave paintings.
30-minute black and white film, suitable for ages 13 and up.
Themes: cave art, history, astronomy, etc.
