Art Paris 2020 | Programming
Join our Instagram Live on Wednesday 10 June at 3pm for the talk "Southern Stars: An Exploration of the Iberian Peninsula" by our guest curator Carolina Grau, live with Miguel Branco and Rui Toscano:
An overview of the French art scene: Common and Uncommon Stories
Each year, in support of the French scene, Art Paris invites a curator to engage critically and historically with a selection of projects by French artists presented by participating galleries. In Common and Uncommon Stories, independent curator and art critic Gaël Charbau brings together the work of 22 artists, most of which were born in the 1980s, responding to the notion of the narrative and the ambiguous interplay between singularity and universality in storytelling. He has also been invited to write a text presenting each artist and their work.
Guest curator: Gaël Charbau, independent curator and art critic
Southern Stars: An Exploration of the Iberian Peninsula
Following its extensive survey of the Latin American scene in 2019, Art Paris turns to the Iberian Peninsula, bringing light to Spanish and Portuguese art from the 1950s to the present day. 25 galleries will be presenting works by a selection of 77 artists – from modern masters to contemporary artists. In parallel, projects including a video programme, site-specific installations, and conferences at the Instituto Cervantes and the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation in Paris will highlight the creative effervescence flourishing in this part of Southern Europe.
Guest curator: Carolina Grau, independent exhibition curator
