Launched in 2015, Paris Internationale’s public programs facilitate exchanges and conversations between members of the international art world. Free and accessible to all, these events are both informal and unconventional. From talks and conversations to book launches and performances, the wide range of events offered allows for those with a variety of interests and levels of expertise to come together in the same space.

This year’s series of “TALKS WITH AND ABOUT” is organized in collaboration with Fondation d’entreprise Pernod Ricard, who shares Paris Internationale’s ambition to foster conversations and facilitate cross pollinisation of knowledge and ideas between members of the international art worlds. Curated by Alice Dusapin, this year’s programme takes up the subject of “Artistic practice, publishing and curating in non-institutional environments and spaces”. It will question the complexity, richness and significance of independance as a means of action.

Paris Internationale has also become known for its “daily dérives,” guided tours through the fair led by esteemed curators, artists, museum directors, and heads of foundations and collectors. These unique moments warmly invite visitors to discover the exhibition through the eyes of an expert in a more intimate setting, thus giving rise to invaluable insights and affirming each person in their relationship to contemporary art.

For its 10th anniversary edition, Paris Internationale is also taking a huge step toward better welcoming its youngest audiences by proposing new Kids Workshops. Children ages 5 years and older will now benefit from specifically adapted content and activities, which the fair has entrusted the creation of to COMBO x COMBO.

Finally, visitors will be able discover important new publications through book launches, and share in moments of creativity and celebration with Marthe Ramm Fortun’s performance and our very own 10th anniversary party, which will take place on the opening night of the fair at Rex Club.
