As artist-in-residence at the Musée Henner, Victoire Mangez will occupy the museum's studio for six months and present the fruits of her labour from 4 October 2023.
Victoire Mangez graduated from the Beaux-arts de Paris in 2021. Worn tiles, grotesque ornamentation and spectacular fountains are all points of departure that enable her to develop her ideas through a play of rebounds and analogies. Victoire Mangez is the winner of the Prix Dauphine pour l'Art Contemporain (2023), and curated the exhibition "Eaux d'artifice" at the Palais des Beaux-arts in Paris (2021) and "Olifant" at the Château de Moyen, Lorraine (2017). She has also been working with Ulla von Brandenburg since 2021.
With works by Anouk Rabot, Aurélia Casse (2022 graduate), Manon Jacob (2021 graduate), Romain Moncet (2020 graduate), Thibault Bouedjoro-Camus (2020 graduate) and Hamideh Harfi.
Winner of a production grant from Rubis Mécénat in partnership with the church of Saint-Eustache and the Beaux-Arts de Paris, Marc Lohner, a 5th year student, is presenting an installation of five strips of fabric suspended in the heart of the church. Curated by Marc Donnadieu.
For the Acheiropoïètes exhibition, a Greek term meaning "not made by the hand of man", Marc Lohner did not attempt to represent the divine, but wanted to reveal what the hand of time, or sometimes involuntarily and voluntarily that of human beings, has left on the walls of the church. To do this, he systematically photographed all the faces of the octagonal limestone blocks that serve as the bases for the church's eighty-two interior pillars, as well as other parts that are less accessible to the eye but still bear the original traces of the building's various construction periods.
After making, sorting and classifying all the images obtained, he printed the most characteristic of them on five strips of translucent linen fabric that he hung between certain pillars, almost twelve metres high. Thanks to subtle effects of perspective, tone on tone and transparency, the photographic skins of the church are superimposed on its natural limestone skins, the pixels of the image on the grains of the stone. In this way, the viewer's gaze is carried away by a double, inverted movement of falling towards the paving on the ground and rising towards the aerial vaults, a constantly renewed coming and going between materiality and immateriality, gravity and lightness, shadow and light...
This exhibition inaugurates a reflective program implemented by the Beaux-Arts de Paris curatorial team to put into perspective the singular present of this school-museum
of this school-museum by its equally unique history, which was also the foundation of museum thinking in France.
Based on a dozen emblematic figures - architect, curator, donor - La Fabrique des collections illustrates the main stages in the creation of a heritage that continues to nourish the imagination of young artists. From the Royal Academy to the second half of the 20th century, this exhibition reveals a little-known and now largely imperceptible history, embodied by colorful characters and paved with seminal anecdotes. Combining objects of different kinds, works and archives, within a common narrative framework, the exhibition takes a resolutely contemporary approach.
The collections of the Beaux-Arts de Paris owe a great deal to Alexandre Lenoir, a painter and art critic who created the first museum dedicated to French art, called the Musée des Monuments Français, on the future site of the École. The monumental elements that remained when this museum closed, together with the collections inherited from the Royal Academies, formed the core of the "Musée des Études", built by the architect Félix Duban and designed by the École's first curator, Louis Peisse. The museum's subsequent development was driven by Eugène Müntz, who initiated the inventory, and Wanda Bouleau-Rabaud, the first female curator at the Beaux-Arts de Paris.
The museum is also founded on generosity, thanks to the influx of several hundred bequests and donations whose content and motivations are extremely varied: former students of the École, such as the architect Joseph Michel Lesoufaché or the engraver Jacques Edouard Gatteaux; political figures such as Victor Schoelcher; little-known philanthropists, such as Célestine Chenavard, or collectors in love with an atypical place, such as Jean Masson or Mathias Polakovits. Each, in their own way, has contributed to the collections of the Beaux-Arts de Paris.
Some forty works, most of them previously unpublished, will be on show. These include a sanguine by Charles Le Brun in preparation for a Mai de Notre-Dame, a drawing by Ingres, a miraculous survivor of the Commune fires, and a youthful pen-and-ink sketch by Georges Rouault. Unexpected works will also be on view, including a print on the abolition of slavery by David Lucas and the diary of the woman in charge of the École's collections during the events of May 68.
A catalogue is published for the occasion.

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).

The Bob Calle Prize is a Europe-wide award created in 2017 by Laurence Dumaine Calle in tribute to Bob Calle (1920-2015) "to highlight the abundant diversity and fundamental freedom of the artist's book". Awarded every two years by a jury made up of people recognised for their contribution to artists' books, the prize is €5,000 for an artists' book selected by international experts.
For its fourth edition, 52 artists' books from 10 European countries will be in competition this year. The awards ceremony will take place on Thursday 08 June 2023 in the amphitheatre of the École nationale supérieure des Beaux-arts de Paris. It will be followed, from 7pm, by a book sale and an exhibition of the works at the Bibliothèque d'art contemporain from Friday 09 June to Tuesday 20 June 2023.

GALLERIA CONTINUA / Les Moulins is pleased to present the exhibition MICRO / MACRO in its educational space ART & FUTUR.
This exhibition is the result of a partnership between GALLERIA CONTINUA and the Filière Fresque & Art en Situation at the Beaux-arts de Paris.
Eleven students from the first year of the programme, accompanied by their coordinator Virginie Pringuet and guest artist Benoît-Marie Moriceau, present their research. This project is part of the ContinuActions programme, a series of inclusive experiences offered by GALLERIA CONTINUA in which mediation is adapted to the audience.
ART & FUTUR Ex-Ex: Expo Experience began in 2021. The project aims to provide a research ground for the development of cultural mediation, through a range of activities aimed at young audiences. In the dedicated ART & FUTUR space, the works are placed at children's level. The experimental exhibitions are adapted to their needs and invite them to play to broaden their perception of the world.
After welcoming international artists such as Nedko Solokav in 2021 and Shilpa Gupta in 2022, this summer GALLERIA CONTINUA will welcome students from the Filière Fresque & Art en Situation.
Over the course of the year, under the guidance of Benoît-Marie Moriceau, they have carried out a series of 'micro-projects' (sketches, models, studies, plans, maps, prototypes, etc.) with a view to creating a 'macro-project' - a work of art created for a specific situation or location, on the scale of an architecture, a site or a territory. Some of these 'macro projects' will be realised, while others will remain purely fictitious.
In MICRO / MACRO, the students present their ideas, their research and their aspirations for the future. This approach makes it possible to appeal to a wide audience, emphasising the back-and-forth between the imaginary and the real; between the explorations of the world of childhood and the know-how acquired by adults. The idea is to show that a small project can become a large one, from a drawing on a table to a city-wide artistic intervention.
With MICRO / MACRO, they were also able to reflect on the issues surrounding the accessibility of their art. They have explored the possibilities of transmitting their art to young audiences, making it active and interactive by thinking about it through the prism of mediation.

In the continuity of the "Theatre of Exhibitions", the residents and students of the fourth class of the "Artists & Exhibition Professions" program propose the program-exhibition Sur le feu. Based on works from the collection and pieces by students and contemporary artists, Sur le feu aims to highlight all of the School's resources in order to share with the public the multiple forms of life and creation that are simmering at the Beaux-Arts de Paris.
How to animate an exhibition? How do you bring it to life? What would it be like to inhabit it? The project unfolds in three principles of thematic actions.
The first lifts the veil on what the Beaux-Arts de Paris are, by making their backstage visible. The second is an invitation to conviviality and living together within the exhibition itself. The third one is a reflection of this collective emulation towards the outside world.
This progressive revelation, going as far as to overflow, makes the bet of a lively and constantly evolving exhibition, where events, projections, workshops and round-table discussions participate in the subject as much as the works presented.
Resolutely prospective, the exhibition goes beyond the simple visit and transports visitors into the experience of interaction and activation.
From week to week - from low fire to high fire - the intensity crescendos, the exhibition comes alive, reveals its secrets and surprises and invites the public to fuel its fire. Here, works of art welcome you for a siesta; there, you are expected to join us for a big buffet. Visitors will be able to contribute to numerous workshops: sewing, making fanzines, tracing and reproducing works from the collection, repairing, manicuring... or simply come and listen to a concert or follow a round table. Everyone will also be able to become a curator of exhibitions to be developed on site from the database of the collections, thanks to an interactive and immersive device proposed by EBB and Neïl Beloufa.
The heritage works will offer shifted perspectives on the history of the Beaux-Arts de Paris. The invited artists - established artists or students - will propose works that, worn, produced on site or tasted, will multiply throughout the exhibition. The Beaux-Arts de Paris thus becomes a living museum in which visitors and artists are invited to co-create.

La Villette invites young artists to take over the Grande Halle and the park for the 5th edition of the 100% festival. In collaboration with internationally renowned French schools, 100% L'EXPO presents a selection of recently graduated talents. Whether in the plastic and digital arts, cinema, design, fashion design or photography, the exhibition offers a wide range of practices and aims to shed light on the challenges of early careers. The weekends will be the occasion for meetings, performances, workshops and screenings.
Many of the artists presented testify through their work to the social issues and subjects that are shaking up this new generation and which the exhibition echoes.
From 5 to 23 April, 100% L'EXPO welcomes two new schools, the Beaux-Arts de Marseille and Lyon, which have joined the Beaux-Arts de Paris, the Kourtrajmé Montfermeil film school, the École des Arts Décoratifs, the École nationale supérieure de création industrielle (ENSCi - Les Ateliers), the École nationale supérieure de la photographie d'Arles, La Fémis, the Culture & Diversité Foundation, Le Fresnoy - Studio national des arts contemporains and the Villa Arson.
On this occasion La Villette is also collaborating with Artagon Pantin, Jeunes Critiques d'Art and Mouvement Magazine.

Echoing the exhibition Gribouillage / Scarabocchio, from Leonardo da Vinci to Cy Twombly, the Drawing and Graphic Arts Department of Beaux-Arts de Paris presents for the first time a group exhibition of artists who are professors and former professors of the School.
With the sketches, sources, paths, thought processes and creations of forty teachers from the Beaux-Arts de Paris, Les professeurs gribouillent aussi... offers an encounter with the genesis of the works of these artists and constitutes a unique testimony to the creation of a unique testimony to today's creation.
The exhibition explores the diversity of doodling practices within the School - drawing, printmaking, digital printing, video, sculpture and mosaic - and addresses its different facets: from the drawings that accumulate in the studio to nourish future creations and are and are regularly discarded, to the scribbling as a field of possibilities, a field of experimentation and a space of freedom necessary for creation freedom necessary for creation, which allows for a renewed, more immediate practice.
