Les Suffragettes de l'art offers a series of portraits of artists who were as talented as they were determined, and who had been forgotten for too long in the history books. From the end of the 19th century to the present day, immerse yourself in the exciting struggle waged by women artists to conquer the Beaux-Arts in Paris.
On the occasion of the publication of Suffragettes de l'art, author Anaïd Demir talks to Pascale Le Thorel, director of Beaux-Arts de Paris éditions, about the stages in women's conquest of the École and their struggle to assert their rights and existence in the artistic field. The interview will be conducted by Alain Berland. Special guests will be artists and teachers Valérie Sonnier, Nathalie Talec and Tatiana Trouvé.

Long associated with time and history, the notion of the archive has undergone major changes over the last forty years. It now also applies to the storage of digital data.
Art historian, author and curator Marie de Brugerolle questions the impact and legacy of performativity on the visual arts, and looks back at Post Performance Future, a pioneering travelling artistic research project she directed from 2012 to 2022.
Her book Post Performance Future. Method/e, published in September 2023, retraces 10 years of research based on the interweaving of performative experiences and practices with several generations of students and artists including Andrea Fraser, Agnieszka Kurant, Cally Spooner, Julien Bismuth and Jimmy Robert.
Constance Nouvel lives and works in Paris. Since 2010 she has been developing a practice based on the technical elements of photography, questioning the reproduction of tangible reality as a process open to the complexities of representation. She explores the notion of photographic objects, and her reflections unfold in installations that bring space and time into dialogue in a formal language. Questions of format, scale and support are at the heart of her work, in a constant shift between real and suggested space.
