In a sluggish global art market, partly due to the geopolitical context, Paris seems to be resisting. The capital hosts major events not to mention its museums, its galleries, its foundations, which make it an essential place for any art lover but also for artists.
-Enquêtes de Région goes to meet these emerging painters. If in the past, Salons were a must for painters wanting to break through, today, artists have a choice. Selling your works online, being part of a community of artists or entering the stable of a gallery owner, how do you break through?
You will also hear from dealers and collectors who have agreed to reveal the complex market of art sales in Paris. Small galleries unearth young talents while emblematic galleries and auction houses increase the prices of artists. An ultra-competitive world but which nevertheless does well to consolidate its place on the international scene.
A show which takes place at MacVal, in Vitry-sur-Seine (Val-de-Marne). This temple of contemporary art is celebrating its 20th anniversary, the opportunity to look back on its history and its collection with Nicolas Surlapierre, director of the establishment.
