FREE ENTRY | Beaux-arts de Paris

In partnership with PhotoSaintGermain, the Beaux-Arts de Paris and the École nationale supérieure de la photographie in Arles have joined forces to organise an exhibition entitled Situations de l'image, presented in different areas of the Beaux-Arts de Paris.

The aim of the exhibition is to show the diversity of photographic writing in today's image community: from the image in the field of enlarged practices that are increasingly pushing back the boundaries of the frame to the photographic act itself, which is situated and intimately linked to the position of its author, dragging with it a host of social, intimate and political questions.

The exhibition provides an overview of photographic approaches as practised at the Beaux-Arts de Paris and the École Nationale Supérieure de la Photographie in Arles.

Artists from the Beaux-Arts de Paris: Zoé Bernardi, Léonard Berthou, Léa Farant, Tessa Larcher Coadou, Ugo Casubolo Ferro, Jule Heinzelmann, Jinyong Lian, Winca Mendy, Océane Pilastre, Joseph Rozé, Ayako Sakuragi, Anne Shitrit, Yuquan Liu, Hanna Zubkova.

Artists from ENSP Arles: Simon Bouillère, Sarah Bourget, Léonard Contramestre, Gaëlle Delort, Salomé Gaeta, Ambre Husson, Noria Kaouadji, Basile Lorentz, Nicolas Marbeau, Bahia Ourahou, Thomas Pouly, Valia Russo, Gaetan Soerensen, Antonio Del Vecchio.

With the support of the Neuflize OBC Foundation, patron of the Extra-Large Photo Chair at the Beaux-Arts de Paris.

Julien Creuzet, artist and studio head at the Beaux-Arts de Paris, talks to Céline Kopp, co-curator of the French Pavilion at the Venice Biennale 2024, about his creation.

‘What does the centre mean when you're French? What does the French Pavilion in Venice and national representation mean? How can we rethink all this, while being designated as ‘ultramarine’, with the feeling of belonging to a much more complex French history? I think we need to try and shed some light on it.

The Beaux-Arts de Paris are delighted to be co-hosting a project by Jean-Charles De Quillacq and the Galerie Marcelle Alix (Paris) with Art Basel Paris.

The exuberant 17th-century setting of the Chapelle des Petits-Augustins could not offer a better setting for Jean-Charles de Quillacq's sculptures. Pieces of bread, cigarette butts and car coolant share the space with the museum's permanent works and several organic forms, stretched or at rest, lying on polystyrene supports that retain traces of their manufacture. Jean-Charles de Quillacq's research focuses on the body and its representations, its materials and interactions, and its social organisation. Half-naked mannequins with polyurethane crotches moulded into jeans, chemical reconstitutions of the artist's own sweat, these representations act as metaphors for the ambiguous and unstable nature of capitalism.
