Passionate about contemporary art?Until June 8 to discover (Re)generation, the third group exhibition of the Reiffers ArtInitiatives Prize!
Located a stone's throw from the Champs Elysées, Reiffers Art Initiatives is a philanthropic endowment fund supporting young contemporary artists and cultural diversity.
This season, the prize brings together five artists from the new French and international contemporary scene:
Born between the late 80s and early 90s, these artists share much more than a generation. From the banks of the Seine to the shores of the Mediterranean, or aboard a sailing boat, they converse with passion.
Spread over two floors, the exhibition opens with Clédia Fourniau and Garance Früh exploring the links between art and the body, one with shimmering abstract canvases, the other with armors made from everyday feminine objects.
It continues with three Mediterranean artists presenting poetic narratives: from Alex Ayed's boat sails to Aïcha Snoussi's queer artifacts, Majd's collections of small objects and embroideries. Each invites us to discover a reinvented past or new narratives.
This year, the Reiffers Art Initiatives artistic committee has named young French artist Clédia Fourniau as the winner of the Prix 2024, succeeding Pol Taburet and Serpas. Born in Paris in 1992, she graduated from the Beaux-Arts with honors in 2021. A prodigious career for this artist, who takes care not to reduce her canvases to mere contemplation: her choices of inks, resins and colorants reflect the silhouette of the viewer and the frame of the hanging room, making the setting an essential component of her canvases.
Cultural mediators are on hand during opening hours to offer free guided tours.
