Discover the public program for the second edition of Paris+ par Art Basel

<p>For the second edition of Paris+ par Art Basel, a public program, free and open to all, will unfold across the French capital. It will include exhibitions, installations of monumental works, and a program of conferences and debates.</p>
<p>Last year’s inaugural public program included projects hosted at the Jardin des Tuileries - Domaine National du Louvre, the Place Vendôme, and the Chapelle des Petits-Augustins at the Beaux-Arts de Paris. This year, they will be joined by three further venues: the Palais d'Iéna, the parvis of the Institut de France, and the Centre Pompidou, which will host the Conversations program.</p>

<p>The Jardin des Tuileries - Domaine National du Louvre will host ‘La cinquième saison’ (‘The fifth season'), a group exhibition produced in collaboration with the Musée du Louvre and curated by Annabelle Ténèze, director of Les Abattoirs in Toulouse and recently announced as the next director of Louvre-Lens. The exhibition will explore the idea of the garden as a space of activity and cohabitation of mineral, aquatic, and vegetal elements. It features work by artists including <a href="https://www.artbasel.com/catalog/artist/19259/Jo%C3%ABl-Andrianomearisoa" target="_blank">Joël Andrianomearisoa</a>, Meriem Bennani, Jacqueline de Jong, Vojtěch Kovařík, <a href="https://www.artbasel.com/catalog/artist/13609/Zanele-Muholi" target="_blank">Zanele Muholi</a>, Jean Prouvé and Pierre Jeanneret, and <a href="https://www.artbasel.com/catalog/artist/8665/Claudia-Wieser" target="_blank">Claudia Wieser</a>.</p>
<p>In Place Vendôme, Swiss artist <a href="https://www.artbasel.com/catalog/artist/7461/Urs-Fischer" target="_blank">Urs Fischer</a> and <a href="https://www.artbasel.com/catalog/gallery/1123/Gagosian" target="_blank">Gagosian</a> will present a 7.6-meter-high aluminum sculpture called <em>The</em> <em>Wave</em> (2018). The sculpture enlarges a piece of clay pressed and kneaded by Fischer, highlighting the marks left on the clay by the artist’s hand, and reflecting his interest in materiality and the specific contexts in which his works are exhibited.</p>

<p>In the Chapelle des Petits-Augustins at Beaux-Arts de Paris, British artist Jessica Warboys, in collaboration with <a href="https://www.artbasel.com/catalog/gallery/2886/Gaudel-de-Stampa" target="_blank">Gaudel de Stampa</a>, will present an exhibition exploring the meeting points of culture and nature, ‘THIS TAIL GROWS AMONG RUINS’. An eponymous video work will be presented alongside canvas collages made with natural pigments and wild water.</p>
<p>A joint exhibition by <a href="https://www.artbasel.com/catalog/artist/6914/Daniel-Buren" target="_blank">Daniel Buren</a> and <a href="https://www.artbasel.com/catalog/artist/7035/Michelangelo-Pistoletto" target="_blank">Michelangelo Pistoletto</a> – presented by <a href="https://www.artbasel.com/catalog/gallery/1093/Galleria-Continua" target="_blank">Galleria Continua</a> and curated by Matthieu Poirier – will be staged in the Palais d'Iéna.<br></p>


<p><em>The Questioning Column</em> (2023), by American artist <a href="https://www.artbasel.com/catalog/artist/7743/Sheila-Hicks" target="_blank">Sheila Hicks</a>, is a monumental, six-meter-high column, covered with multicolored, waterproof, and sustainable fibers. Installed on the forecourt of the Institut de France, the work's vivid chromatic palette will create a dialogue with the muted tones of the surrounding buildings. The work will be presented by <a href="https://www.artbasel.com/catalog/gallery/1109/galerie-frank-elbaz" target="_blank">galerie frank elbaz</a>, in collaboration with <a href="https://www.artbasel.com/catalog/gallery/1217/Meyer-Riegger" target="_blank">Meyer Riegger</a>, and <a href="https://www.artbasel.com/catalog/gallery/1116/Francesca-Minini" target="_blank">Francesca Minini</a>.</p>
<p><br></p>

<p>This year’s Conversations program will be hosted by and presented in collaboration with the Centre Pompidou, in the heart of the Marais district. Curated by Pierre-Alexandre Mateos and Charles Teyssou, it will feature nine debates on contemporary cultural discourse.</p>
<p>Subjects discussed will include: avant-garde pioneers Chantal Akerman and Antonin Artaud; the intersection between art collecting and fashion; purveyors of contemporary myths, from Walt Disney to drag culture; and the links between Paris, the Maghreb, and the Caribbean. Familiar formats from the Conversations program will return, including the ‘Premiere Artist Talk’ and ‘The Artist and the Collector’.</p>

<p>Conversations will take place between October 19 and 21, and are free and open to all, like all other elements of the public program. They will be held in English and French with simultaneous translation. More information will be available from September.<br></p>
