Mémoires d'atelier II - dialogue with Émilie Verger and Flore Chesnay

The Reg-Arts project (Beaux-Arts de Paris, CNRS, INHA) aims to understand the history of the Beaux-Arts de Paris in a multidisciplinary way, through the creation of a digital resource giving access to the registration registers of student painters and sculptors between 1813 and 1968. The accompanying seminar aims to explore this history in a collective and contemporary way.

The session on 16 December 2022 will focus on the place, role and functioning of the studios within the Beaux-Arts de Paris in the 20th and 21st centuries. Émilie Verger will retrace the singular pedagogy proposed by Roger Chastel in his studio between 1864 and 1869 and the artist Flore Chesnay, a former student of the School, will share her experience in the studio directed by Elsa Cayo between 2005 and 2017.

The REG-ARTS project is supported by the Malatier-Jacquet Foundation, which is sponsored by the Fondation de France.
