The 68th edition of Jeune Création will take place in the Cour Vitrée of the Beaux-Arts de Paris, the birthplace of the "Atelier Populaire" in May 1968.
This rapprochement between Jeune Création and the Beaux-Arts de Paris is an opportunity to echo both the history of the association, which accompanied this period of reflection and political commitment of artists, and the exhibition Images en lutte - La culture visuelle de l'extrême gauche en France (1968-1974) which analyzes 50 years later, this moment in history and art history.
From May 13 to 20, 2018, the 68th edition of Jeune Création will present a subjective landscape of the international emerging art scene. The selection made from nearly 1,800 applications, will present 38 artists from 14 different nationalities.
A special feature of Jeune Création is that the selection committee is composed mostly of artists from previous editions. New in 2018, the invitation made to an external personality to join the commission, but also its largely international composition.
This year, the Bunker Palace agency will be in charge of the exhibition's scenography and the visual identity will be designed by Marion Kueny, in collaboration with the edition's organizing committee.
The exhibition will be accompanied by a rich program of events, focusing on performance, video and photography with 3 evening events until 10pm: Saturday 12, Wednesday 16 and Saturday 19 May 2018.

For the first time, until 2022, the programme of the Palais des Beaux-Arts is entirely designed, developed and implemented by the 25 students of the "Artists & Exhibition Professions" course and the 11 young curators in residence at the Beaux-Arts de Paris. From 14 April to 29 May 2021, discover the seven new projects of Act 2 of the Theatre of Exhibitions, presented in a series of rooms fitted out for the occasion. Each in its own way, these exhibitions cross time by confronting the heritage works of the School's collections with the contemporary works of professors and students. This joyful, disorderly and experimental laboratory challenges the very principle of the exhibition with forms that are still unspeakable and sometimes confusing.
From March 2021 to January 2022, masterpieces from the collections of the Beaux-Arts de Paris and the creations of young artists from the School and their teachers are brought together in a succession of exhibitions. This composite piece will feature both fully completed works and others still being put together or even developed. It is written by the students of the first two classes of the "Artists & Exhibition Professions" course at the Beaux-Arts de Paris*, accompanied by young curators in residence and guided by the School's curators, theoreticians, professors and staff.
The Exhibition Theatre will be brought to life with a programme of live performances, concerts, readings, screenings, two-voice visits, sound interventions or radio transmissions on Radio Bal. See you on Thursdays and Fridays from 2.30 pm live on Facebook.
The Exhibition Theatre is developed and produced by the first two classes of the "Artists & Exhibition Professions" course:
Class of 2019/2020: Lina Benzerti, Brune Doummar, Milana Dzhabrailova, Sarah Konté, Corentin Leber, Chongyan Liu, Victoire Mangez, Bram Niesz, Yannis Ouaked, Violette Wood, Kenza Zizi. Curators in residence 2019/2020: Simona Dvořáková, Marie Grihon, César Kaci, Alice Narcy, Esteban Neveu Ponce.
Class of 2020/2021: Soraya Abdelhouaret, Paul-Emile Bertonèche, Yucegul Cirak, Andreas Fevrier, Daniel Galicia, Alexandre Gras, Raphael Guillet, Thibault Hiss, Hélène Janicot, Elladj Lincy, Anna Oarda, Céleste Philippot, Océane Pilastre, Libo Wei. Curators in residence 2020/2021: Noam Alon, Antoine Duchenet, Lou Ferrand, Céline Furet, Juliette Hage, Lila Torqueo.
* Created in 2019, the "Artists & Exhibition Professions" programme is directed and coordinated by the exhibition and public services departments. It enables 3rd and 4th year students to train in production, stage management, scenography, mediation and all professions related to the presentation and dissemination of art. As part of this training, a residency is offered to young curators who can work for a year at the Beaux-Arts de Paris. The "Artists & Exhibition Professions" programme at the Beaux-Arts de Paris is designed in partnership with the Palais de Tokyo.
Acte 1
À la recherche de toujours / from March 3 to 28, 2021
This exhibition brings together the work of student artists at the Beaux-Arts de Paris and invited artists to explore the aesthetic and ideological influences of the Middle Ages on the contemporary world. The exhibition takes the form of a game board strewn with dragons, churches, armors or magic plants. Reinventing modern myths, imagining a pre-capitalist or pre-patriarchal utopia or even a post-collapse Roman Empire utopia, rethinking production techniques, these are just a few of the avenues that motivate artists, designers and philosophers to seize the fantastic universe of the Middle Ages in our time. In all these themes, the exhibition focuses more specifically on the use of fiction through games: video games, role-playing games, sets and costumes, Warhammer game table and cosplay costume.
Curator: César Kaci, resident curator of the "Exhibition Professions" program and Violette Wood (assistant curator, student of the program)
Production team: Liu Chongyan, Sarah Konté, Marie Grihon, Yannis Ouaked, Kenza Zizi (students in the program)
Sound performances, concerts and the presence of derivative objects for sale in the bookstore will be part of the project.
Eaux d'artifice / from March 3 to 28, 2021
As an element of purification that welcomes the child into the community of the living through baptism as well as a weapon of divine punishment during the flood, water has had a dual image since the first Christian texts. It retains this ambiguity over the centuries, passing from a rare element of first necessity in the medieval period and its wells to an ornamental component of the fairy tale of the century of Louis XIV. Eaux d'artifice, which borrows its title from Kenneth Anger's film, explores - through a selection of printed books from the collection of the Beaux-Arts de Paris and a drawing, specially conceived by the two co-curators Victoire Mangez and Juliette Green - this metamorphosis of water into an ornament: from the thin, hidden resource of the well to the enlarged basin of the fountain, from medieval illuminations to the Grandes Eaux of Versailles.
Curator: Alexandre Leducq, curator of manuscripts and prints, with Victoire Mangez (exhibition skills) and Juliette Green, a 2020 graduate of the Beaux-Arts de Paris
Guided tours of the exhibition will be offered by Alexandre Leducq and Victoire Mangez.
Mon chien mon avenir / from March 3 to 28, 2021
The dog in question here is a metaphor for art from the artist's point of view: "his" art, "his" production, "his" artistic practice - that thing that itches and follows the artist when he turns around; we throw it a bone, it's not enough, it asks for more. It is then necessary to tame it, to speak to it, to look after it, to play with it, so that perhaps it answers us. We no longer know who belongs to the dog or to the master, to the artist or to his production. Conscious of the uncertainty of the future, but with the certainty that there is one, the exhibition proposes here wandering gestures, images under the coat, forms by strata. They have been obtained by simple actions: to damage, to dismantle, to gather, to pierce, to scratch. The dog wanders: here are leaves that greet you, a pile of bones that come to life, a bar full of holes that never stays thirsty, assemblages of wires and plastics that litter the studio floor, sunflowers with gaping hearts, a dog drawn with a lighter that bites its own tail...
Curator: Marie Grihon, curator-in-residence, "Exhibition Professions" program
Sound experimentation projects will accompany the exhibition.
Des Feux comme des Aurores / March 3 to April 4, 2021
This exhibition brings together artists whose work - and more specifically its conception (mental, formal) - seems to be animated by a common logic: the perpetual movement, the constant mutation of bodies, the indeterminacy of form and the desire of accomplishment dedicated by the matter in it. The works presented, all full of strength and a contained impetus, are living, vibrant forms, animated by a breath, a presence, and pose an assumed look at their origins and their future.
Curator: Esteban Neveu Ponce, resident curator, "Exhibition Professions" program
Guided tours of the exhibition will be offered.
Abes Fabes Kartoflyabes / March 3 to April 4, 2021
Abes Fabes Kartoflyabes is a magic formula used by the creatures of the Nordic mythology to operate on the humans a reduction of scale. Photography leaves its vernacular terrain and its nostalgia for travel to exist as a trace and as evidence. Through the prism of photography, an ignored dimension is revealed where the gaze is no longer absorbed in a reality that exceeds and engulfs it, but involved in a distance that allows it to understand forgotten mechanisms, to perceive imperceptible details, realities invisible to the naked eye. Tiling of silent horizons but not without echoes to the primitive language of the landscape. An attempt to free our habits of looking to see what we no longer see because of our pictorial culture.

Beaux-Arts de Paris is pleased to launch a new student mobility partnership with the Institut national de recherches archéologiques préventives (INRAP). The students selected for this programme are sent to a preventive archaeology site (Guadeloupe, Guyana or Reunion Island) as active observers within a research team, in order to nourish their reflection and practice in a non-artistic context. They find themselves in a situation of self-learning through contact and exchanges with professionals and scientists involved in projects that bear witness to the issues of the present.
Lucie Tréguier and Corentin Schimel, co-founders of the association "Le Barreau des Arts", talk with Alain Berland about the relationship between art and law.
Le Barreau des Arts is an association that aims to promote access to the law for authors and precarious performers. The association acts under the aegis of the Paris Bar Association, and offers beneficiary artists legal advice on copyright law, as well as educational resources to promote and facilitate their access to and understanding of the law.
Jacques Villeglé began his studies at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Rennes, where he met Raymond Hains. From 1947 to 1949 he studied architecture in Nantes, then moved to Paris.
In 1949 he became a collector of torn posters, calling himself a "poster artist" and proclaiming the "guerrilla war of signs.
Author of a prolix work since the 1970s, pioneer of "musical theater" associating musicians, actors and the public with his Atelier Théâtre et Musique (ATEM), Georges Aperghis is one of the cardinal figures of contemporary musical creation, recognized by numerous distinctions such as the Golden Lion of the Venice Music Biennale or the BBVA Frontiers of Knowledge prize.
