PROJECT PROGRESS
Description of project progress – Scientific Part
In B.B. Polar project, we propose to use marine bivalves as biological archives of
environmental changes in Arctic Ocean. These biological tools will be implemented to monitor the
parameters of the Arctic environment at different time scales (daily to decadal) and space (from the
single fjord to pan-Arctic view) by using two bivalve species, Chlamys islandica and Astarte spp.
B.B. polar proposes to apply the methods of describing the recent past environment in order to
obtain:
1. A calibration and validation of the environmental descriptors of the sites already
instrumented (Kongsfjorden and Rijpfjorden in Svalbard)
2. A description of the environmental variations during the last decades coupling data on
Chlamys islandica and the long-lived species Astarte spp.
3. A description of the environmental variations at the Pan-Arctic scale by enhancing the
geographical area to non-instrumented sites in the Greenland and Canadian Arctic.
To address these objectives, the first year of the project was dedicated to instrumentation and
sampling during four scientific missions:
• April 30 to May 17: 1st mission in Kongsfjorden (Svalbard)
• 9 to 23 May: 1st Mission in Nuuk (Greenland)
• 24 August to 5 September: 2nd mission in Nuuk (Greenland)
• 23 September to 7 October: 2nd mission in Kongsfjorden (Svalbard)
Sampling and instrumentation of sites in Svalbard (Figure 1) were carried out in collaboration with the
ANR project - ECOTAB (N. Morata) also working on Chlamys islandica.

- Erwan Amice / France
- Jean-Pierre Aubé/ Quebec (http://www.kloud.org/ )
- Jacynthe Carrier / Quebec (http://jacynthecarrier.com/)
In such multi art project, it needs a curator. Franck Michel held this position. Indeed, through
the diversity of artistic practices and the multitude of possible works interpretations, the role of the
curator is to make sense, direct reading, make works coexist in a coherent whole with a thematic or a
given theoretical concept. The Curator shall establish a significant dialogue between works. To do so,
he develops a central idea and approach, accompanies and supports artists in their efforts and also
ensures the space in the exhibition space. Its mandate is to establish a bridge between the works and
the public by providing key readings and interpretation to facilitate access to works.
Approached locations to host this project are:
- Paris - Museum of Natural History, Paris
- Brest - Océanopolis
- Brest - Passerelle
- Lyon - Confluence Museum
- Montreal, Quebec, Toronto, Rimouski
- Norway - Tromso, Oslo (please specify)
Provisional timetable for the exhibition:
New meeting with Franck Michel June 2014
Funding research End June 2014
Finalization of project design and scenography January 2015

Consortium meetings
Members of BB Polar project had the opportunity to meet twice during the first year of the
project.
The first meeting was held September 13, 2013 with a representative of all scientific and artistic
project partners. This meeting was an opportunity:
- exchange between the partners after 6 months of project
- evaluate the two missions realized in May 2013 and organize the next two for the end of 2013
and 2014
- Present the artistic partners projects
The second meeting was held on 6 March 2014 allowing scientists, artists, photographers,
coordinators and organizers of the project to discuss following the mission in Svalabard in September
2013. This meeting was an opportunity to:
- Share this common experience
- To present the status of various artistic projects: Jean Gaumy, Sandrine Paumelle and Erwan Amice
- Present the exhibition projects and the possibility to product a book.
