Romain Bernini's pictorial work is imbued with questions about colour and space, mythology and popular culture. Whether in lush, enigmatic landscapes, masked or disguised figures, or strange, indeterminate zones, his works reveal a world on the margins, marked by a history that combines utopias and rituals.
A resident of the Villa Médicis in Rome in 2010-2011, he has taken part in numerous exhibitions in France and abroad, including: Immortelle (MO. CO, Montpellier, 2023), Them (Suzanne Tarasieve gallery, Paris, 2022) la Profonde Alliance (le Parvis, Centre d'art Tarbes, 2021), Expended Minds (HdM gallery Pékin-Londres, 2020), Eldorama (Lille 3000, 2019), Les Enfants du Paradis (Musée des Beaux-arts de Tourcoing, 2019), Blue Bird (Daegu Art Factory, South Korea, 2022), Tristes tropiques (1905 Art Space, Shenyang, China 2021) and Creating Worlds (Wooyang Museum of Contemporary Art, South Korea, 2017).

It was with deep sadness that we learned of the death of Pierre Alferi, an immense writer, poet and beloved teacher at the Beaux-Arts in Paris.
We shall miss him.
Our thoughts are with all those who loved him.

The Beaux-Arts de Paris are pleased to welcome with Paris+ by Art Basel the project by Jessica Warboys and the gallery Gaudel de Stampa (Paris).
The 17th-century chapel of the Beaux-Arts de Paris will host an exhibition by British artist Jessica Warboys, exploring the overlap between man-made culture and nature. Titled ‘THIS TAIL GROWS AMONG RUINS’, it will combine a multichannel video and sound installation with a large collage of unstretched paintings. Warboys makes these by following a unique process: She brushes the canvas with beeswax, immerses it in wild bodies of water, and then sprinkles it with mineral pigments on the shores. In her eponymous video work, the artist stages the journey of a candle through various sites where nature and culture intersect, from the Biblioteca Joanina in Coimbra, Portugal – home to a colony of bats that protect its precious manuscripts from insects – to the pine forest surrounding the Arvo Pärt Center in Laulasmaa, Estonia. The video is accompanied by a soundtrack using the amplified sounds of bats, composed by Morten Norbye Halvorsen. The project is presented by Gaudel de Stampa (Paris).
From Tuesday 17 October 2023 to Sunday 22 October 2023 every day from 10am to 7pm
