La Malterie is an association based in Lille, in the Wazemmes district. It works in the fields of contemporary music and visual arts. It is a support structure for research and artistic experimentation and includes work spaces (workshops and rehearsal rooms), distribution spaces (concert hall, exhibition spaces), a resource center specialized in the professional status of visual artists. This site is served by the Porte des Postes metro station.
History
La Malterie was created in 1995 by La Stomate, a group of visual artists from different art schools in the region and in Belgium, whose main objective is the diffusion of their production through the organization of collective exhibitions. The site of a malting plant was chosen, an industrial wasteland located in a former brewery.
In September 1999, La Malterie is struck by a prefectural order of prohibition of exploitation for reasons of nonconformity with the safety standards which puts a temporary end to all its actions of diffusion. The reopening of the broadcasting room is authorized in January 2001 and the workshops were renovated and put in the standards in 2002.
