The prevention unit - Beaux-Arts de Paris

As part of its policy on equality women/ men and promotion of diversity, Beaux-Arts de Paris engage in a proactive mechanism of prevention and treatment countering sexual harassment, psychological harassment and discrimination.

Thus, the school has set up a monitoring unit whose creation and missions have been approved by the different organizations: pedagogic council, hygiene committee and boards of directors.

Submitted to the board of directors, presided by Laurent Dumas, the activity report highlights key events in the operations and projects lead by Beaux-Arts de Paris each year. It takes stock of the school’s many activities such as courses, cultural programming, collections management and exhibitions, books publication or building maintenance.

The Cercle Chromatique is an association under the 1901 law created at the end of 2017 by a handful of alumni to bring together former students of the Beaux-Arts de Paris, with the aim of supporting, helping, undertaking and promoting each other. 
 

What does life after the Beaux-Arts have in store for us? 

There are as many answers as there are artists, painters, sculptors, teachers, illustrators, researchers, poets, jokers and directors who have passed through this strange institution.

Each year, the Beaux-Arts de Paris offers four weeks of intensive courses, dedicated to amateur practice in fine art, in the form of summer classes open to all (minimum age 16).

These courses are an opportunity for amateurs, beginners or those with an already established practice to study in the the school’s studios and to follow the teaching of experienced, qualified Beaux-Arts teachers.

The Beaux-arts de Paris continues its commitment to refugee artists or asylum seekers who have undertaken or completed a higher education in art in their country of origin. 

The Herodote programme has increased its intake capacity while maintaining its demand for diversity, with a majority of artists coming from Ukraine, Russia, Bangladesh, Syria, Palestine and Burma.
 

The training program for Artists Intervening in the School Environment (AIMS), set up in 2010 by the Beaux-Arts de Paris, has been associating since 2016, the five major National Superior Schools of Art in Paris, members of the Paris Sciences et Lettres (PSL) University: Conservatoire national supérieur d'art dramatique (CNSAD), Conservatoire national supérieur de musique et de danse de Paris (CNSMDP), École nationale supérieure des Arts Décoratifs (EnsAD), Beaux-Arts de Paris and École nationale supérieure des métiers de l'image et du son (Fémis).
