Les Amis des Beaux-Arts organize a masterclass with internationally renowned painter Yan Pei-Ming, in dialogue with Frédérique Goerig-Hergott, Director of Dijon Museums, curator and exhibition organizer.

Yan Pei-Ming was born into a working-class family in Shanghai in 1960. He began painting at a very early age and proved to be a talented artist. At the age of 20, he left his homeland to study at the Beaux-Arts in France. In his early years, Yan Pei-Ming painted with an economy of color, favoring monumental formats.

On the occasion of the publication of (Non) Performance: A Daily Practice, author and curator Julie Pellegrin dialogues with artist Kapwani Kiwanga about ways of performing knowledge, care and disorientation.

Although performance art has become an essential part of contemporary art, books devoted to it in French are still rare. In (Non) Performance: A Daily Practice, Julie Pellegrin explores the political effects of performance through conversations with nine artists from diverse backgrounds.

Created by three institutions, the Beaux-Arts de Paris, the INHA and the CNRS, the Reg-Arts database provides access to the Beaux-Arts de Paris enrolment registers of more than 12,000 student painters, sculptors and engravers between 1813 and 1968.

Reg-Arts provides a central resource for art history, enabling researchers, descendants, museums and galleries to explore the data.

[Last days] The exhibition will be closed to the public on Wednesday, December 25, 2024 and January 1, 2025.

From David to Delacroix, Cézanne to Matisse, Ellsworth Kelly to Gina Pane and Hélène Delprat, Souvenirs de jeunesse is a journey back in time over two centuries, from 1780 to 1980, during which the Beaux-Arts de Paris welcomed tens of thousands of aspiring artists. 

Through more than 260 works and documents, the exhibition adopts the point of view of youth, that of young men and women on the threshold of their artistic vocation. 

In partnership with PhotoSaintGermain, the Beaux-Arts de Paris and the École nationale supérieure de la photographie in Arles have joined forces to organise an exhibition entitled Situations de l'image, presented in different areas of the Beaux-Arts de Paris.

The aim of the exhibition is to show the diversity of photographic writing in today's image community: from the image in the field of enlarged practices that are increasingly pushing back the boundaries of the frame to the photographic act itself, which is situated and intimately linked to the position of its author, dragging

Paris-based artist and researcher Dana-Fiona Armour won the inaugural Sigg Art Prize on 18 October for the integration of artificial intelligence into art for her interactive video installation, ‘Alvinella Ophis’.

Born in 1988 in Willich, Germany, Dana-Fiona Armour graduated from the Beaux-Arts de Paris in 2019.

Defining herself as an artist-researcher, Dana-Fiona Armour aims to transcend the boundaries between matter and species, acting as an interpreter between humanity and other living beings.
 

Composition of the jury:

For over two hundred years, the Beaux-Arts de Paris site has devoted a vast complex of buildings - some dating back to the seventeenth century - to the teaching of art and architecture: a place of creation and freedom without equal in the world.

In this book, Anne Debarre and Maxime Decommer, teachers and researchers at the ‘Architecture, Culture, Society’ laboratory at the École d'architecture Paris-Malaquais, bring together the architectural and educational dimensions of this exceptional site, exploring the evolution of the buildings and their uses.

For Marc Couturier, ‘to draw is to dwell in grace. To draw is to reveal, to walk, to draw is to breathe, to survey lines, it is an exercise in humility and freedom’. Hervé Chandès, extract from the preface.

Born in 1946 in Mirbeau-sur-Bèze (Côte d'or), Marc Couturier lives and works in Paris.
