About
A French company dedicated to cultural discoverability.
World Art Scena was born in Occitanie from one conviction: an artwork's visibility should not depend on clicks, but on its quality, its singularity and the connections it creates.
The founder
Lise Guiot Raivard
Founder and President · scientific and product lead
With a PhD in performing arts and comparative literature, a career as a live voice and music artist, and training in data and artificial intelligence, Lise Guiot Raivard founded World Art Scena to bring together two worlds that rarely talk: artworks and data.
Researcher, artist and trainer, she knows what a work needs in order to be understood, and what a territory gains by making visible the people who bring it to life. She designs the survey method and leads the scientific direction of every map.
To make World Art Scena a reference infrastructure for art: interoperable, ethical, serving knowledge, creation and territories.
