Description

The company "Le théâtre de la Toupine", well known for its street installations but also for its monumental works, has imagined "l'Arbravie", a gigantic tree made of steel tubes, a symbol of life emerging from a mineral and concrete environment.
This initiative by the town of Annemasse, in collaboration with the Casino d'Annemasse, is linked to the enhancement of the town's entrances, as well as the new pedestrian facilities on the Vernand slopes and the enhancement of the banks of the Arve.
