DAR NOUR





                                                                               PHOTOS

                                                      Dar Nour ou « la Maison de la Lumière », …

"Le Dar Nour a toujours inspiré les artis­tes. Écri­vains, photo­gra­phes, comé­diens, stylistes, décora­teurs, musiciens, … Ils aiment sé­jour­ner chez nous pour y cher­cher la tran­quil­lité, tour­ner un film, finir un livre ou préparer un spec­tacle. Parmi les plus connus d'entre eux, on peut citer Matt Damon, André Téchiné, Yasmina Reza, Rachid Taha, Agnès B, Françoise Dorget, Odile Decq, Maylis de Kerangal, … Nous tenons beaucoup à ce label de maison d'artistes. Dar Nour, maison d'hôtes et de création, participe à l'expres­sion artistique en organisant des expositions de peinture ou de photos, en transformant les terrasses, le temps d'une soirée, en scène de théâtre ou de lecture poétique..."

" ..Dar Nour res­pecte l'esprit d'une const­ruction tra­ditionnelle marocaine de bord de mer. Son mobilier et sa décoration expriment par petites touches l'histoire cosmopolite de Tan­ger. Une vil­le ouverte aux influ­ences euro­péennes, orientales, africaines ou juives, … et marquée par les artistes qui sont venus s'y inspirer, de Bacon à Matisse, de Genet à Choukri en passant par les Rolling Stones, William Burroughs, Tennessee Williams ou Paul Bowles. ."

“[A]nother important difference between tourist and traveler is that the former accepts his own civilization without question; not so the traveler, who compares it with the others, and rejects those elements he finds not to his liking.”   The Sheltering Sky   UM CHÁ NO DESERTO
