    • CAFÉ ZA, A NEW, FRIENDLY SPACE IN THE HEART OF GORODKA IN PÉRIGORD

      A new artistic and cultural venue in Sarlat-la-Canéda

      Located in the heart of the Gorodka Village of Singular Art, a few minutes from Sarlat-la-Canéda, Café Za stands out as a warm and unexpected new addition to the already teeming world of this extraordinary space.

      Open seasonally, this café-bar with its rustic and relaxed charm extends the artistic experience by offering a place to meet, share and create, in a natural and unusual setting.


      A café-bar between forest, works of art and conviviality

      Café Za blends harmoniously into the wooded and artistic environment of Gorodka. Designed as a living extension of the place, it welcomes visitors in a relaxed atmosphere, between raw wooden tables, Chinese furniture and bohemian atmosphere. Whether for a coffee during the day, a drink in the evening, or simply to take a break between two galleries, this place offers a unique moment of relaxation, surrounded by installations and sculptures. The products offered emphasize local and authenticity, with a short menu, made up of artisanal drinks, homemade syrups, local beers and small sweets to savor.


      Outdoor concerts and events

      After dark, Café Za often transforms into a lively stage, with a program of intimate concerts, musical evenings, and other cultural events organized in the open air. World music, French song, jazz, rock or folk, the styles vary depending on the evening, but the spirit remains the same: that of a free, creative and welcoming place. Guest artists often play in a natural setting, lit by the light sculptures that make Gorodka famous.


      An ideal stopover to extend your visit to Gorodka

      Café Za allows visitors to extend their immersion in the world of Pierre Shasmoukine, enjoying a lively and animated space after browsing the art galleries or the night tours. For families, it is also a practical meeting point: while children explore the play areas or workshops, adults can relax in an artistic and caring atmosphere.


      An evolving place, like Gorodka

      Like everything in Gorodka, Café Za is a space in constant evolution. Each season, new artists come through, ideas are born, and the program adapts to the desires of the moment. It is a place to live, where art is not only viewed: it is listened to, shared and celebrated. Whether for a late afternoon coffee, an aperitif-concert at sunset or a prolonged evening around a fire, this new space naturally complements the unique spirit of Gorodka.


      To discover during an evening or a stay on site

      Gorodka offers unusual rentals (gîtes, studios or former artists' rooms), allowing you to extend the experience by staying on site, closer to nature and creation. A visit to the art galleries is included with each night's stay. In summer, the nighttime illuminations give a new dimension to the entire site. The Café Za , by becoming a place of artistic life, now offers a new face to this village like no other, to be discovered in the heart of the Périgord Noir.

    An exceptional and unusual place where we discover the artist's great work, as well as his career and the way he designed it. We will remember this visit for a long time and will not hesitate to return to try out a chalet.

    Astonishingly, aside from Pierre's imagination, his sharp perspectives on institutions and humanity, his creativity, and his avant-garde approach, the most touching thing is his little sister's personal commitment to preserving the works. Noelle

    For those visiting the Périgord Noir region who wish to stray from the (ultra)beaten paths of the average tourist, we recommend a stop at this extraordinary site, dedicated to the extraordinary journey of a multifaceted, versatile, and unconventional artist who passed away three years ago. We would like to thank his sister Catherine, who guided us for two good hours through this maze of places and works, telling us about his life and his struggles against the dictates of the political and/or so-called artistic world.
