Underground & cool · Artists' studios in a cold-store · €
Les Frigos
A 1920s refrigerated railway warehouse squatted by artists in the 1980s, now roughly 80 studios behind corridors layered in graffiti, over 7,000 m² along the Seine. The ground-floor L'Aiguillage gallery shows year-round.
Studios open to the public for the late-May portes ouvertes; outside those, visits are by appointment. The hidden canteen-bar is part of the draw.
