ANIMATIONS 2019
THE THEME: ROW STATE…
As an invitation to return to the essential, to the point of origin, to the beginning. There, where the landscapes look like virgin lands. There, where chance and simplicity, dream and imagination are invited. In an age where everything is polished, we should favor the culture of the imperfect.
Preferring know-how in all its diversity, its roughness. This is the perspective of a return to the sources of beauty and goodness that the next Vivre Côté Sud show in Aix-en-Provence promises, between tradition and Mediterranean authenticity.
ESDAC STUDENTS PRESENT THEIR CREATIONS
The first year students of BTS Design of Fashion and Home Environment present a whole series of accessories, clothing and decorative objects around the theme “Raw”. The textile material, the fiber are at the heart of their creative approach, proposing a whole work of ennoblement of the material. Two former students join the exhibition: Mathilde Lordet presents her collection of scarves with pop influences and Lola Saglietto a collection of brooches and hand embroidered bags. A selection of creations from the Product Design section also adorn the stand.
RAW-STATE BY AURÉLIE DES ROBERT
Back to the beginning, to the genesis, to the essential. There, where only nature has made its mark, where the tree stretches its branches towards a pure sky; where the sea offers its transparent clarity, where the earth is intact, unaltered. Like a blank page where life is moving again. One would then take the path of a simpler life, truer. We would be inspired by the past, the collective and constructive memory, we would avoid ecological catastrophes, we would preserve our essential nature, we would be interested in… the raw state of things. The hand of man would accompany the meaning of this first, primary aesthetic.
A look at a modernist architecture sheltered by a patio with Moorish and Mediterranean accents by LPasse Design. We discover behind large wooden screens with openwork patterns, made to measure by Rock the Kasbah, the interior of a house that would be revealed by the play of shadows and lights of a shade in natural fiber of coconut , designed and manufactured by Scourtinerie. The building would alternate smooth painted surfaces, raw and worked materials, plant fibers … Materials opening new horizons like the natural bark fiber of Adele Matuba Collections imagined by Lucien Tourtoulou but also the materials of Marius Aurenti, pionner concrete waxed, with lime in worked paste and vegetable painting. There, would invite an art of living and think where authenticity and truth have their place. This place is here. Welcome to the Maison Côté Sud, in a simple and raw state …

SOLAR ATMOSPHERE BY ROCHE BOBOIS
To live outside, at a ground level or almost … Declined for the first time in outdoor version, the best-seller of Roche Bobois keeps the modular and composable character which made its success.

SCULPTEUR D’ARBRES PAR MARC NUCERA
To observe, to look, to touch, to feel …. To dare to turn and return, to change angle, to breathe the different woods, to appreciate the vein under the skin. Son of a passionate cabinetmaker, Marc Nucera inherited his love of wood. He sculpts the trees by favoring the essence of matter, the primary state of form. His tool: the chainsaw.

GOURMET CULINARY DEMONSTRATIONS
Once again this year, the Salon Vivre Côté Sud showcases the flavors and culinary talents of the South through its exhibitors but also a program of tantalizing culinary demonstrations managed by Anne Garabedian, editor-in-chief of the magazine « Le Cœur des Chefs » , on the theme “Raw-state”.
“The cook’s job begins when he chooses his favourite product and strives to bring it to light. During the culinary demonstrations of Vivre Côté Sud 2019, the chefs will choose their emblematic product, the one that makes them want to cook and they will fade behind him. Recipes without artifice where only the product is drawn, in the raw state or almost. “Anne Garabédian
The chefs:
They come from all over Provence, but the gastronomic news of the city of Aix-en-Provence deserves to be especially celebrated.
The chefs cook in the wine estates: Matthieu Dupuis-Baumal opens in the spring the restaurant of the Château de la Gaude north of Aix-en-Provence and Ludovic Aillaud has just taken the reins of the bistro at Château Grand Boise in Trets.
Ronan Kernen (Côté Cour) opens La Petite Ferme just next to the Cézanne cinema, Pierre Reboul gives a second life to the Château de la Pioline, Olivia and Mickaël Féval offer two additional addresses in the city center and Nicolas Bottero welcomes Saint -Cannat gourmets arriving from the north. And since the Alpilles land also friends, Michel Hulin de Baumanière and Eric Sapet of the Little House of Cucuron. We will of course find our “essential historical figures” as Nadia Sammut and Ernest Hung Do (La Fenière in Lourmarin) and our Italian heart, Anna Bini: without Anna and the Sammut family, the show would not be as greedy as it is today.
Finally, the “Sunday night dream brigade” has become a rendez-vous of conviviality not to be missed. Often impromptu and spontaneous, this collective demo is made up of leaders who have a “little” sense of sharing. It shows and it’s heard!

Cultural, economic or sporting, the major events that take place there contribute strongly to its international renown. The South is also a way of life, between trends and traditions … a Mediterranean, Provençal spirit found in the Salon Vivre Côté Sud, of which the Region is a partner, and which, over the years, has has established itself as a meeting place for professionals and the general public, lovers of the south, its colors and its values.
