Art Paris 2023

The 2023 edition of Art Paris will celebrate its 25th anniversary, a major event for collectors, galleries, artists and lovers of modern and contemporary art. In spring 2023, 130 galleries will once again gather at the Grand Palais Éphémère to discuss two new strong and inspiring themes: Art and Commitment and Exile.

For its 25th anniversary, Art Paris combines exhibition curator’s subjective, historical and critical views with the selection of two thematic projects, which contribute to the uniqueness of this major spring event in Paris :

Art & Commitment : A Focus on the French SceneMarc Donnadieu offers his perspective on the French scene on the theme of commitment : “If art doesn’t change the world, some works of art do resist and, in their own way, counter the attacks to which the world is subjected. Such works make us more clairvoyant; they foster empathy and emancipation, obliging us to open our eyes to art and the world, to both their histories and current affairs. It is this commitment made by artists and their art that I want to put in the spotlight and contrast with the obscurity that is darkening the outlook today.” 

Exile : Dispossession and Resistance - Independent exhibition curator and founder of Beirut’s Temporary Art Platform (TAP) Amanda Abi Khalil will be selecting around twenty international artists based around the theme of Exile: Dispossession and Resistance
