On June 20 in the IESA arts&culture auditorium, 1st-year Bachelor in Art Expertise and Art Trade students will see their year-long project come to fruition. They invite you, starting at 19:00, to the auction they organized to fund the Juvenars Prize!
IESA arts&culture, the international school of arts and culture, and more particularly the first-year Bachelor class in Art Expertise and Art Trade, are organizing for the third consecutive year the presentation of the Juvenars-IESA Prize. This prize will be awarded to an artist under thirty working in a contemporary art discipline (painting, sculpture, photography) who is not represented by a gallery.
Buoyed by two successful sessions, the school and its students wanted to repeat the experience of this Prize, allowing young artists to showcase their creations and be supported in their artistic endeavors by a 5,000 euro endowment. Among about sixty applications received from all over France, eight artists are in the running. Their works will be on display starting this afternoon in the IESA Gallery, in Paris’s 11th arrondissement. A jury of contemporary art professionals made up of, among others, Sophie Zénon, photographer, Renaud Layrac, artist, and Arthur Dreyfus, journalist and writer, will be responsible for selecting the winner of this third edition.
The winner will receive the sum of five thousand euros and will be given a solo show in the IESA arts&culture Gallery.
To fund the Juvenars-IESA prize, an auction will be held on June 20 in the IESA auditorium and will be run by Maître Isabelle Boisgirard. You can see the works in the sale on display from June 18 to 20 in the IESA Gallery or online.
