This summer, timed to the 20th anniversary of the LUMA Foundation and the 10th anniversary of Frank Gehry’s LUMA Tower, LUMA Arles is offering a dynamic arts program spotlighting celebrated pioneers and exciting contemporary voices. The first phase of the two-stage program includes a Van Gogh-inspired interactive exhibition by the Amsterdam-based artists DRIFT, as well as an installation by the American artist Diana Thater that features a robot-gardener tending a post-apocalyptic Earth. Highlights from the second phase (launching June 30) include a curation of Lee Friedlander’s photos by filmmaker Joel Coen (Fargo, No Country for Old Men) and the debut of a new opera, The Great Yes, The Great No, by the South African artist William Kentridge. —Paulina Prosnitz
