Paris, a major center for contemporary art The 2021 edition goes hand in hand with an exceptional period of cultural and artistic renaissance in the City of Light, as illustrated by the opening of foreign galleries and new venues, the renovation of existing cultural institutions and the inauguration of new ones. Paris is asserting its role as a major hub for contemporary art in Europe and this ongoing transformation of the Parisian art scene is reflected in the many activities on offer as part of the VIP programme, which is reserved for collectors and art professionals.GENERAL PRESENTATION OF ART PARIS 2021ART PARIS I 9-12 September 2021 I Grand Palais ÉphémèreART PARIS I 9-12 September 2021 I Grand Palais Éphémère45*with the support of The Wall Street Journal** with the support of Museum TV and The Art Newspaper
Since 2018, Art Paris has consistently supported the French contemporary art scene by inviting curators to lend a subjective, historical, and critical eye and to design a special project highlighting French artists featured at the fair. After François Piron in 2018, Camille Morineau and her association AWARE in 2019 and Gaël Charbau in 2020, it will be the turn of guest curator Hervé Mikaeloff to share his perspective on contemporary French artist with Portraiture and Figuration. A Focus on the French Art Scene, bringing together some twenty artists around the theme of the portrait and the renewal of figurative painting in France.According to Hervé Mikaeloff: “In a “post-medium” era, art is more than ever questioning its relationship to the image. In my focus on the French Art Scene, by choosing the theme of portraiture I am aiming to show the renewal of figurative art. Above and beyond a simple stylistic effect, portraits are a means by which artists can develop a new relationship with the world.
