 The towers are illuminated by the French visual artist, Yann Kersalé |

Power, money, authority: one could think that the three imposing towers of Biel-Bienne's arteplage have only that in mind. But their domineering shadows do not reach to the shore where courage, creativity and freedom abound.

In the natural surroundings of the Expopark the pavilions make their appearance discreetly, like the dreams in our minds. Here there is everything: space, urbanity, communication, fun. The millennium has already established itself: it stimulates our grey matter and gathers our visions of the future.
From here we can walk easily over the 450-meter footbridge high above the bay of Biel-Bienne which joins the Expopark to the Forum, forming a link between freedom and power. On the massive platform, which is supported by 236 piles anchored into the bottom of the lake, the three towers create the impression of impregnable strongholds. But the giants have feet of clay, and their pompous structures are more show than reality: neither they nor power, money and authority are inviolable.
