Thirty secondary school pupils from around twenty schools across the country were selected to take part in this programme, created in 2007 by the Culture & Diversity Foundation to help them prepare for entrance exams to art and design schools.


During this first week-long course at the School, the artistic practice workshops invited participants to develop a piece based on a work from Beaux-Arts de Paris collections. Each studio head involved developed a specific proposal related to this work, combining an original approach with reflections informed by art history.

On Friday, 20 February 2026, Beaux-Arts de Paris hosted an inter-school professional day, organised in partnership with École des Arts Décoratifs – PSL and École nationale supérieure d'art de Paris-Cergy, aimed at young graduates. 


Designed as an opportunity for discussion and networking, the aim of the day was to support the transition from school to the professional world by offering practical tools and opportunities for dialogue on contemporary artistic practices.

The career of feminist theorist and filmmaker Laura Mulvey has contributed to profoundly transforming our relationship with images. Since the 1970s, the theorist of the "male gaze" has continued to work on behalf of a mobilised gaze, conscious of the asymmetries between genders, asymmetries that structure the history of images, their reception and the ways in which they are produced.

Metahaven’s work between design, filmmaking, textile, installation, and writing has been thoroughly linked with the internet and its geopolitics, pairing research with experimental, exuberant aesthetics.

The collective, founded in 2007 by Vinca Kruk and Daniel van der Velden, in recent years has been focusing on the foundational role of poetry in both its cinematic and visual, but also its literary and cognitive senses.

On 11 March 2011, Japan was shaken by the Fukushima disaster of unprecedented magnitude. What have we learned from this inextricably natural and nuclear disaster?


To discuss its echoes and resonances beyond Japan and "from our window", philosopher Clélia Zernik, curator Élodie Royer, researcher in film theory and aesthetics Élise Domenach, and writer Michaël Ferrier, who share a deep knowledge of the Japanese art scenes with which they maintain a long-standing dialogue, look back on this event and the upheavals it has caused. 

Since the 1950s, certain artists have chosen to become idle. Rejecting the frenzy of production, they have explored the virtues of withdrawal, slowing down and inaction, creating art in a different way.
Following on from the international symposium Désœuvrer / Un-work organised in 2021 by the École Normale Supérieure, the École du Louvre and the Beaux-Arts de Paris, this book examines the forms and challenges of this unique artistic attitude. 
 

Edited by Morgan Labar, Armance Léger and Killian Rauline.
