Quote from Alexia Fabre, Director of Beaux-Arts de Paris:
Designed as a professional springboard and a showcase for the emerging scene, 100% L'EXPO is the must-attend contemporary art event dedicated to young artists. Each year, La Villette collaborates with art schools to showcase recent graduates and highlight the challenges of early career development.

Van der Meulen
"With a mirror in your eye, you can look beyond the image, beyond the field, to understand what, in plain sight, was being shown without anyone daring to see it. Once the initial astonishment has passed, the paintings cease to be images, and reveal the traces of a process, of a time longer than that of stupor. That of painting, abandoned to itself on the surface of the canvas. It responds indolently to the flash of fear.
