Les Beaux-Arts de Paris extends its warmest and most sincere congratulations to Nina Childress, who joins the Académie des Beaux-Arts. She has been head of studio at Beaux-Arts de Paris since 2019.

 

Nina Childress was officially installed as a member of the painting section of the Académie des Beaux-Arts on June 25, 2025 by her colleague Catherine Meurisse, member of the engraving and drawing section.
 

For 2 days, the Ateliers Ouverts are a unique opportunity for the general public and professionals to discover the young creativity and artistic diversity produced by students at Beaux-Arts de Paris.

The studios are transformed into exhibition spaces, offering a panorama of work produced from the Via Ferrata preparatory class to the fifth year: paintings, photos, sculptures, drawings, videos, etc. Studio training is the hallmark of Beaux-Arts de Paris, and is named after the renowned artist in charge.
