For half a century, Aquitaine and Quebec have had a political will for cooperation and the sharing of skills in various fields, including that of culture.

Since 2003, Zébra3 has built a lasting relationship with Quebec through the establishment of creative residencies.

In 2011-2012, the Clark art center and the Zébra3 association set up cross cultural exchanges between Bordeaux and Montreal. These exchanges gave rise to the co-production of two creative residencies, two exhibitions and two artist catalogs, and initiated professional exchanges between Quebec and French actors linked to production issues in the visual arts sector.
