As part of our members’ programme for the members of the Kunsthalle Friart Fribourg, we are delighted to invite you to a visit to the CREAHM studio in Villars-sur-Glâne on 10 December 2026 at 2 pm. Directors Laurence Cotting and Gion Capeder will guide us through the studio and introduce us to their work.

Founded in Fribourg in 1998, CREAHM provides people with disabilities with the opportunity to develop an independent artistic practice in a distinctly art-oriented environment, under the guidance of two professional artists. A pioneer in Switzerland and unique in French-speaking Switzerland, 28 years after its foundation CREAHM has become a point of reference, both for the independence of its approach and the quality of its work. With more than 200 exhibitions and collaborations in Switzerland and abroad, CREAHM stands for an approach to Art Brut that challenges established conventions.

CREAHM was founded in 1998 by Fribourg-based artist Ivo Vonlanthen, inspired by a Belgian model established in the late 1970s by Liège-based artist Luc Boulangé.

A recent publication by Edition Patrick Frey offers a comprehensive overview of CREAHM’s work and projects, featuring contributions by Charlotte Laubard, Daniel Baumann and others.

We look forward to receiving your registration at info@friart.ch.
