For its 2023 edition, Paris+ par Art Basel will increase its presence beyond the Grand Palais Éphémère, featuring a program that comprises three exhibitions, two monumental outdoor installations, and a series of talks and debates, presented in six iconic locations across the French capital.
These locations include the Jardin des Tuileries – Domaine national du Louvre, the Chapelle des Petits-Augustins des Beaux-Arts de Paris, and the Place Vendôme – all of which already hosted projects in 2022 as well as three new venues: the parvis de l’Institut de France will host a monumental textile sculpture by Sheila Hicks, the Palais d’Iéna will host a duo exhibition by Daniel Buren and Michelangelo Pistoletto, and the Centre Pompidou, which will welcome the show’s Conversations program.
A multimedia installation by Jessica Warboys will be on view at the Chapelle des Petits-Augustins des Beaux-Arts de Paris and a five-meter-high aluminium sculpture by Urs Fischer will be exhibited on the Place Vendôme. Curated for the second year by Pierre-Alexandre Mateos and Charles Teyssou, the show’s Conversations program will unfold at – and be presented in collaboration with – the Centre Pompidou. With the addition of new venues and a citywide public program, Paris+ par Art Basel will therefore further expand its offering and footprint in the French capital, as well as its collaborations with local cultural institutions and the City of Paris.
“With Paris+ par Art Basel’s 2023 public program, Parisians and visitors from out of town will be able to experience thought-provoking art engaging discourse in the contect of historical, if not legendary, locations.”
Clément Delépine, Director of Paris+ par Art Basel
Clément Delépine, Director of Paris+ par Art Basel, says: “I am delighted that with three new venues, we were able to significantly bolster the public program of Paris+ par Art Basel’s upcoming edition. The fruitful institutional partnerships we put in place and the ambitious proposal resulting from them are defining features of our show in the French capital. With Paris+ par Art Basel’s 2023 public program, Parisians and visitors from out of town will be able to experience thought-provoking art and engaging discourse in the context of historical, if not legendary, locations.”
