The Mobile Institute events took place several times during the month of August 2007, filling vacant buildings and outdoor spaces in the vicinity of "Le Noailles" Hotel. Art Platform such as "Nadine", the old "Styx" cinema and still active rendez-vous hotel "Le Berger" were given spaces to develop artwork.
Collaborating with existing infrastructures (institutes, organisations, cultural centres and cinemas) the Mobile Institute covered events such as performances, lectures, debates and exhibitions involving artist in residence at "Le Noailles". The aim was to stimulate the exchange between artists and institutions in order to create a more collaborative network.
The overall scheme was to provide a self-managed organisation with multiple functions. Subsequently, artists were asked to develop a site-specific artwork. Locations and spaces formed the basis of all art events thereby creating an emergent network. Events took place on Fridays throughout the month of August.
