The marble statues that adorn the entrance to the School's Palais des Études have just been completely cleaned and restored.
This restoration was made possible thanks to a Kärcher skill-based sponsorship for the Beaux-Arts de Paris. In total, 8 marble statues and 10 limestone pedestals have just been completely cleaned and restored. These works are in the inventory of the collections of the Beaux-Arts de Paris, which received the designation Museums of France in 2017.

Research project - 'Imaginal photography': for an aesthetic of symbiosis
On line and on site
This international colloquium, organized by the ENS and the École du Louvre and Beaux-Arts de Paris, aims to renew the discourse on idleness in art, taking as its object all the artistic forms of idleness (voluntary but also, sometimes, suffered) from the mid-1940s to the present day, also questioning the refusal to make work and anti-productivist strategies.
As the school year begins in 2021, Via Ferrata, the integrated preparatory class at the Beaux-Arts de Paris, is doubling its enrolment and welcoming 50 students for the first time.
During one year, the teaching team will prepare the students of this new class for the exams and entrance examinations to the higher art schools in France and abroad.

Tiziano Foucault-Gini, a 5th year student (Sirjacq workshop), is the winner of the 2021 Contemporary Drawing Prize.
"I can't remember how long I've been drawing. In a childhood full of anger, drawing was an outlet, and allowed me to build myself. Today, it is the foundation of my practice. I practice it without concession, in the permanent idea of surpassing myself. Like boxing, which I have practiced for a long time, and which resonates with the way I work. When I draw, I fight, against myself and my limits." Tiziano Foucault-Gini
