“The exhibition highlights the two major artists invited to France by Francis I - the Florentine Rosso and the Bolognese Primatice - but differs from exhibitions devoted to their drawings or to the Fontainebleau worksite in its focus on the engravers who were associated with them on site, and who were not only skilful interpreters of the compositions of these two masters, but also inventors of forms and experimenters with the new etching technique, which they profoundly renewed.”
Éric de Chassey, Directeur des Beaux-Arts de Paris
Through a selection of some 50 works, this exhibition highlights the exceptional collection of drawings and prints by École de Fontainebleau held by Beaux-Arts de Paris. It provides an opportunity to (re)discover the art of maniera that developed at the Château de Fontainebleau and then spread to France under the impetus of Rosso Fiorentino and Francesco Primatice, two Italian artists in the service of Francis I and then Henry II.
The works on display evoke the genesis of the château's painted and sculpted decorations, from the Galerie François I to the Galerie d'Ulysse, and are complemented by etchings produced at Fontainebleau in the 1540's. This innovative corpus, the result of an unprecedented project in France, raises numerous questions, notably concerning the distribution of models, material organization, formal research and the technical trials and tribulations of the artists.
Some of the works on show are previously unseen, and the vast majority have not been shown to the public for over 30 years. A rare drawing from Rosso's French period, Pandora Freeing the Plagues from her Box, is one of the major pieces in the exhibition. Beaux-Arts de Paris collection of drawings relating to 16th-century art in France is one of the largest and most remarkable in France, alongside those of the Musée du Louvre and the Bibliothèque nationale de France. With almost 400 works, Beaux-Arts de Paris holds the second largest collection of Bellifontaine prints in France after the Bibliothèque nationale de France, and one of the largest in the world alongside the British Museum. Beaux-Arts de Paris owes this wealth to the contributions of passionate collectors from the 19th and 20th centuries, as well as to the generosity of contemporary patrons, in particular the Association des Amateurs de Dessins des Beaux-Arts de Paris.
The Fontainebleau project is an example of artistic ferment and effervescence, a symbol of transnational artistic collaboration whose modernity has marked the history of art in Europe. Today, this exceptional moment is reflected in the activities of Beaux-Arts de Paris, where the conservation, study and transmission of heritage play a central role in contemporary teaching.

“Chère Melpomène,
We call to you, the ancient muse of tragedy, who once reigned at the back of the Palais des Beaux-Arts. Once a towering statue, several meters high, you have now become a ruin. From the residue of your dust, we seel to transcend the archetype of the muse and evoke a fresh, nuanced breath, able to seep into the interstices of established orders. In between inspiration and expiration, between what is spoken and what remains silent, this breath embodies our deepest desire for social justice.”
Chère Melpomène is a call to subvert classical myths in order to convey other stories that are closer to our daily lives. The exhibition invites us to listen, feel, and breathe together in a poetic exploration of what binds us.
Drawing inspiration from the methodology of artist Theresa Hak Kyung Cha (1951–1982) in her work Dictée (1982) - where the nine muses of Greco-Roman antiquity are reimagined to honor female martyrs who sought emancipation - the exhibition sublimates reality by rerouting the figure of Melpomène. What relationships should we cultivate among the inhabitants of the earth - beyond species, and between animate and inanimate beings? Theresa Hak Kyung Cha invites us to prioritize our senses, intuition, and pay attention to our surroundings in order to reconnect with the multiple breaths of life and reignite our commoning energy.
The exhibition invites us to navigate our intimate tragedies and the stories we can tell about them. It offers an incantation to summon spiritual and political alliances, to infuse our struggles with magic, expand our imagination, and nurture hope. The pieces in this exhibition embody acts of resistance and solidarity, sharing speculative cosmogonies that translate the plurality of memories that shape our contemporary society and cultivate our interdependence while honoring our individual differences.
Chère Melpomène intertwines a hundred works from the collections, students and international artists, presenting a transhistorical display from the late 17th century to today. Most have never been exhibited—recently acquired by the School or newly created for the exhibition—while others have yet to circulate in institutional spaces.

This exhibition, dear to Beaux-Arts de Paris, where he had been teaching since 2015, presents to the public for the first time a substantial body of some fifty drawings, produced between 2006 and 2021.
Alongside his work as a poet and writer, Pierre Alferi (1963-2023) drew continuously and intensively for many years. This long-discreet practice was not shared until 2020 on his Enseignes website. These drawings explore the “pictorial couplings of word and image”, about which Pierre Alferi has regularly written. For him, they have been as much a problem of representation as a familiar path, among others, for exploring his moods and passions. Humor is expressed on several levels, in the discrepancies or connivances between words and images, and through the play of words with each other and with images. The various ways in which the two meet are the central theme of his pictorial work.
Pierre Alferi drew his daily inspiration from a variety of image sources, both in print and on screen. The iconographic variety reflects the diversity of his chosen objects, which range from medieval illuminations to Mad Magazine cartoonists, Japanese imagery, primers and Romantic vignettes. Almost all his drawings are copies, based on one or more source images, which he alters by retracing them, sometimes to the point of blurring the references. Prime thus the imaginary network in which he takes them, and which puns complete the link in a short-circuit of meaning. A mural airbrushed by Hippolyte Hentgen highlights the human relationships in which Pierre Alferi lived his creative work, and the multiple collaborations to which he contributed. It adopts the motifs of an original drawing by Hippolyte Hentgen, transformed, extrapolated and dispersed on the scale of the Cabinet des dessins et des estampes - Jean Bonna.
Curators: Kathy Alliou, director of the Fine Art Department at the Beaux-Arts de Paris and Paul Sztulman, professor of art history and theory at the École Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs.

L'art et la vie et inversement presents the 26 artists who received the Diplôme National Supérieur d'Arts Plastiques from Beaux-Arts de Paris with the Congratulations of the Jury in 2024.
Their works present a wide diversity of subjects, materials and intentions. The challenge of showing them together is to question what they express about a generation, and what they say about today's world.
What emerges from these works is the students' desire and way of constantly blending art and life. Their lives appear in their works in iconographic, thematic and narrative forms, and their works integrate their lifestyles. Through them, we see the fragility of the world and the threat it faces. There's nothing new in taking close friends and family members as models, but this approach has another meaning here: L'art et la vie et inversement reveals a flexible, fluid world in which reversals are possible, where landscapes speak of inner worlds, and intimate monologues speak of the world as it is.
These are horizons inspired by childhood visions, inhabited by singular forms of spirituality, or marked by the tragedies of history. Bodies are put to the test in pain, indeterminacy, hallucination, tenderness or malice. Gleaners in the city or in nature, these artists often appear inclined to help each other and to dialogue between the arts. Landscapes, and the human and non-human beings who populate them, are sometimes themselves the actors in a film. Characters emerge from another film to enter life. Other works deliver more domestic, intimate visions. For them, gentleness is sometimes a way of tackling the toughest subjects. A vision of a world in transformation, of an enigmatic present, these positions are based on the complexity of human beings. What emerges is a shared humanity, efforts to hold on to worlds on the verge of disappearing, narratives sometimes beyond the realms of reality.

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.

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.

From David to Delacroix, Cézanne to Matisse, Ellsworth Kelly to Gina Pane and Hélène Delprat, Souvenirs de jeunesse is a journey back in time over two centuries, from 1780 to 1980, during which the Beaux-Arts de Paris welcomed tens of thousands of aspiring artists.

Souvenirs de jeunesse examines history in the present, with contributions from artist Franck Leibovici and eight students from the Beaux-Arts de Paris, who were struck by the enduring feelings that enter the world of art: joy, competitiveness, uncertainty and solidarity.
The exhibition will be closed to the public on Wednesday, December 25, 2024 and January 1, 2025.
Mediation :
Guided tours organized in partnership with the École du Louvre take place every Saturday from 3:30pm to 5pm.

The Académie des Beaux-Arts will be paying tribute to the graphic work of Leonardo Cremonini, a foreign associate member of the Académie (1925-2010), in an exhibition to be held from 5 April to 29 May 2024 at the Pavillon Comtesse de Caen in partnership with the Beaux-Arts de Paris.
Thanks to donations orchestrated between 2022 and 2024 by Pietro Cremonini, the artist's son, the Beaux-Arts de Paris now own the complete collection of prints by Leonardo Cremonini, a major artist of the second half of the 20th century and head of the painting studio at the École des Beaux-Arts from 1983 to 1992. This unique collection is one of a kind in French and European public collections: in all, some two hundred items covering the one hundred and sixty editions produced by the artist between 1966 and 2009, plus around thirty state proofs which, in addition to their intrinsic beauty, are demonstrative of his way of working.
Although Leonardo Cremonini tried his hand at etching during his studies, it was as a mature and accomplished painter that he returned to printmaking in 1966. From working blindly on the matrix to passing through the press, printmaking was more than a metaphor for his approach as a painter; it enabled him to experience his creative process as an artist in a different way: he surrendered himself fully to this art of the "second time", in which chance and revelation, recurrence and infinity preside, as they do in the creation of his paintings.
Leonardo Cremonini (Bologna, 1925 - Paris, 2010) trained at the Bologna Academy of Fine Arts, then at the Brera Academy of Fine Arts in Milan. His career as a painter then took him to Paris, where he lived for most of his life, alternating with stays in his studios in Bertinoro, Panarea, Trouville and Florence.
He is associated with painters such as Francis Bacon, Balthus, Roberto Matta, Karl Plattner and Zao Wou-Ki, as well as literary figures who have written extensively about his paintings, including Louis Althusser, Michel Butor, Dino Buzzati, Italo Calvino, Régis Debray, Umberto Eco and Alberto Moravia.
His work has been shown in a number of venues at the heart of the artistic effervescence of his time: Catherine Viviano Gallery in New York, Erica Brausen's Hanover Gallery in London, Max Clarac-Sérou's Galerie du Dragon and Galerie Claude Bernard in Paris. Several retrospectives have been devoted to his work, in museums in Brussels, Basel, Paris, Prague, Tokyo and Milan.
His works are held in some forty museums in Europe and the United States.
"I don't have a message to deliver", said Leonardo Cremonini. His attention was above all focused on the enigma of bodies, places and light. In 2001, he was elected a foreign associate member of the Académie des Beaux-Arts.
Curated by
Anne-Marie Garcia, Honorary Curator General of Heritage, in charge of prints and photography at the Beaux-Arts de Paris from 2015 to 2023.

She is also the author of a book devoted to the place of photography in the collections of the Beaux-Arts, La photographie avec les arts.
Catalogue
To coincide with this exhibition, the first book devoted to the prints of Leonardo Cremonini has been published by Beaux-Arts de Paris éditions with the support of the Académie des beaux-arts.

Students and curators in the "Artists & Exhibition Professions" program present autohistorias, a group exhibition inspired by Gloria Anzaldúa, Chicana feminist theorist, activist and poet. In an unpublished text, she proposes writing as a way of defining oneself through theory, fiction, mythologies, linguistic games and poetry. Through individual stories and fiction, it's a question of constructing a collective narrative, thought of as an alternative tool to dominant narratives.
"If I don't have access to the truth, I'll invent it, I'll tell myself, preferring my fictions to the lies and truths that others fabricate for me, about me". (Gloria Anzaldúa, Ethnic Autohistorias-teorías: Writing the History of the Subject).
In 1989, Gloria Anzaldúa wrote a formally inventive text that oscillates between poetry, personal narrative, historical commentary and politics. The essay is a toolbox. Anzaldúa encourages an active subjectivity and invites us to seize our intimate stories and fiction to shape our collective narratives.
Driven by this spirit, autohistorias brings together a group of artists who - from the 15th to the 21st century - have used the self as a way of telling history, shaping political allegory and using narrative as a means of emancipation.
autohistorias presents a group of auto-fabulists, chimeras, beautiful liars, chingadas and bad girls who traverse complexity with literary flair, aesthetic clarity and performative memory. Fiction, autobiography and speculation become the tools for composing a collective narrative and memory; an individuality that is guided not by absolutes but by ambiguities.
The exhibition brings together works by student artists and from the heritage collections of the Beaux-Arts de Paris, as well as those of guest artists. Self-portraits, hybrid collages, invented languages, parallel worlds - made up of personal histories and intimate archives - are presented. autohistorias composes a common space-time born of intersubjectivity, enunciation and listening. Thursday evenings will feature an artistic program, details to follow on beauxartsparis.fr.
Les Beaux-Arts de Paris is a partner of Paris Gallery Weekend, an event organised by the Comité professionnel des Galeries d'art, inviting the public from 24 to 26 May to 3 days of free, open-access exhibitions, meetings and events in 101 Parisian galleries. The autohistorias exhibition is part of the VIP programme of Paris Gallery Weekend.
