In 2025, Beaux-Arts de Paris presents the 5th edition of Crush.

For this new edition, 79 4th and 5th year students at Beaux-Arts de Paris are presenting their work in the cour vitrée. For this exhibition, they were assisted by three curators: Chris CYRILLE-ISAAC, poet, art critic and independent exhibition storyteller; Horya MAKHLOUF, art critic and curator; and Julia MARCHAND, curator.

Release April 2025

Thomas Lévy-Lasne’s monograph covers twenty years of artistic creation, with one hundred and eighty-eight reproductions showing the richness of his repertoire and the different themes he has dealt with since the 2000s.

Watercolors of celebrations, charcoals of events and shows, oil paintings of urban solitude or the invasion of intimacy by technology, animals, landscapes, portraits - he tackles the most diverse and contemporary subjects in a way that is both classic and highly personal.

 

This exhibition, dear to Beaux-Arts de Paris, where he had been teaching since 2015, presents to the public for the first time a substantial body of some fifty drawings, produced between 2006 and 2021.

 

L'art et la vie et inversement presents the 26 artists who received the Diplôme National Supérieur d'Arts Plastiques from the Beaux-Arts de Paris with the Congratulations of the Jury in 2024.


Their works present a wide diversity of subjects, materials and intentions. The challenge of showing them together is to question what they express about a generation, and what they say about today's world.

Pierre Alferi, writer, poet, philosopher and professor of literature at the Beaux-Arts de Paris from 2015 to 2023, drew in correspondence with his writings.


This catalog brings together a selection of his drawings, exhibited for the first time by co-curators Kathy Alliou and Paul Sztulman in the Cabinet des dessins et des estampes.


It also includes a previously unpublished text by Pierre Alferi on these drawings, for which he says he was inspired by “mute or Lettrist collages (...), Chinese painting, comic strips, signage, satirical engraving and miniatures”.

Narrating the invisible and the living

Alice Pallot and Clara Bouveresse examine the medium of photography, the links between art and science, new representations of the living, the materiality of the non-visible, experimental degradation processes, representations of the near future, and the need to rethink our interactions with the environment in a damaged world.

ENTRÉE LIBRE

Sara Favriau is first and foremost a sculptor: a hut, a pirogue, a bow, a tree... are elements that form part of her formal and conceptual vocabulary, and carry their own dramaturgy.

The artist questions both the work and its ecosystem, its circularity like a pirogue-tree that crosses a sea to find a forest. She summons up forms, symbols and processes of a popular nature and transposes them. Wood is one of her favorite materials, whether considered on a macro or micro scale.
