The Asia Now fair
To offer its students high-quality training, enriched by the most extensive professional skills, IESA arts&culture forms academic partnerships with cultural players. Once again, our students took part in the 8th edition of Asia Now, held from October 20 to 23, 2022, at the Monnaie de Paris, this historic site in the heart of Paris, in an 18th-century palace with open-air courtyards.
Founded in 2014 by Claude Fain and Alexandra Fain, ASIA NOW is a project fair that aims to present the new perspectives and issues of contemporary Asian art and its market: the value of its artists, its development potential and its rising stars.
Committed, it asserts an awakening and a stake in the issues that challenge the world. So for this 8th edition, Asia Now continues its exploration of the scenes of West Asia and Central Asia, putting the global conversation of artists from Asia and its diasporas in the international spotlight. This year’s theme, Bonfires, brings together the fire arts, emblematic of coinage and ironwork, with the art of ceramics, also made of earth and fire. At the heart of this edition is the creation of a sense of community through a collective artistic experience.
Our Students Interning at ASIA NOW
Our students interning at the ASIA NOW fair supported the team, where they were on every front welcoming and informing visitors, among other duties.
It was an opportunity for them to learn more about this ever-evolving field and to talk with the various professionals who attended.
Our students faced the job market and put their knowledge and professional skills into practice.
