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.

La Villette is inviting young artists to take over the Grande Halle and the park as part of the 6th edition of the 100% festival. In collaboration with internationally renowned French schools, 100% L'EXPO presents a selection of recently graduated talent. Whether in the plastic and digital arts, film, design, fashion design or photography, the exhibition offers a wide range of practices and aims to shed light on the issues involved in starting a career. The weekends will feature meetings, performances and clubbing.

Having trained in music rather than dance, Pol Pi still feels that what he does has more to do with time than space. What he creates is above all a matter of listening: intuitive, memorial, affective. What is already there. It is this musicality that calls and questions him. He will attempt to revisit his dance career in order to reflect on his relationship with listening.

Marianne Martin likes to help. 

Marianne Martin likes her life to have meaning. 

Marianne Martin loves her name. 

Marianne Martin loves freedom.

Just like all French people...

Come and see a performance that plays with the worst to think about the present, and invites us, not without humour, to question ourselves about freedom, the frameworks we need and those we are victims of, revolutionary history and, more broadly, national identity. 

Atravessemos! - Portrait de la ville de São Paulo was created following a study trip to São Paulo in September 2022 by the Atelier danse performance of the Beaux-Arts de Paris, directed by Emmanuelle Huynh.  She then invited visual artist Jocelyn Cottencin to continue the collaboration they had begun in 2016 around city portraits.
Nine students from the Beaux-Arts de Paris met with ten student artists from the Pontifical University of São Paulo to share their daily lives, memories, history and fiction.

Gilles Clément in dialogue with Michel Blazy and Patricia Ribault

As part of the Michel Blazy workshop and Patricia Ribault's diploma seminar on "Ruse, bricolage et savoir-faire: formes de l'ingéniosité", we will be welcoming the gardener, landscape gardener, botanist, entomologist, biologist, writer and teacher Gilles Clément for a special lecture.

Artist Julieta Hanono presents her work on the Cosmology of the Aubervilliers Aquarium at the La Débrouille workshop, with Adria Bentamate and the support of the Bureau des Heures Invisibles. She is in dialogue with the philosophers Fabienne Brugère and Mara Montanaro, on the relationship between cosmology and the philosophy of care, and on the interweaving of cosmology with the pacha mama and Latin American feminisms.
 

Artist and performer Jocelyn Cottencin uses a wide variety of media to question the place and status of the sign. In the form of installations, films and performances, he explores the way in which images inhabit us, as in the performance Monumental, a score of gestures that activates the memory of certain places or monuments. His work focuses in particular on notions of community, group and the end of modernity.
