For this third edition of the lecture series “L’invité du soir,” IESA arts&culture and Connaissance des Arts are pleased to stream the talk by Guillaume Piens from Friday, March 18, 2017.
Held under the glass roof of the Grand Palais from March 30 to April 2, 2017, Art Paris Art Fair is a fair bringing together 139 galleries from 29 countries. Art Paris Art Fair explores European art from the postwar period to today while also welcoming emerging international creation. This year, Africa is in the spotlight. After studying art history at the École du Louvre and Paris 1 University, Guillaume Piens went to work abroad in luxury hospitality. Back in Paris, he developed a partnership with FIAC and the Hôtel Scribe in Paris. He then joined the teams at Fiac and later Paris Photo, of which he became director. In 2011, he took over as head of Art Paris Art Fair.
The lecture series “L’Invité du soir” is part of a drive to promote culture jointly desired by “Connaissance des Arts” and IESA arts&culture.
