Rencontres Artistiques 2022

I thought it was remarkable to allow a dialogue between young artists and established experts.

"As a student at the Beaux-arts, I found in Carré sur Seine an ideal platform to professionalise my relationship with the art world. The meeting and exchange with different experts allowed me to confront my practice and my discourse with the eyes and ears of informed professionals. There is a lack of such opportunities today and I found it remarkable to allow a dialogue between young artists and established experts.
I was really honoured to be one of the three winners of this year's event and it gave me a lot of visibility and opportunities like my exhibition at the Institute of Islamic Cultures.

Rencontres Artistiques 2022

The format of this event makes it really accessible to meet galleries or institutions.

"The Rencontres Artistiques of Carré sur Seine are a great opportunity for artists who are just starting out in their professional careers, like me, to get advice and viewpoints on their work from different experts in the field. But it also remains unavailable for artists who are already in a professional continuity, who string together various projects and aim to meet a specific expert with a project already formed.

In my case, it was very important to make these meetings last year in order to take a step forward towards creating my professional network. Not having studied in France, I had difficulty finding my place in the French professional art world. The format of this event makes it really accessible to meet galleries or institutions.

In my case, the Meetings have given my work more visibility, contributing to the expansion of my professional network. I would love to participate this year!

Rencontres Artistiques 2020

A well-run "two-in-one" project!

"This event gave me the opportunity to meet experts that I would not have known otherwise. I was able to explain my approach and have a dialogue with them. Now they follow my work closely and we communicate regularly.
In addition, these Meetings are accompanied by a prize for three winners, a well-run "two-in-one" project!

The portfolio reading followed by an exchange between the artist and the expert is a new format!

"The possibility of meeting experts by videoconference opens up the Rencontres to a wider audience.
The portfolio reading followed by an exchange between the artist and the expert is an unprecedented format!
I don't spontaneously approach experts, so these Rencontres Artistiques were a real opportunity for me!
They gave me the desire to continue expanding my network of contacts. "

Rencontres Artistiques 2020

An accelerating event!

"These Rencontres Artistiques were an accelerating moment thanks to the exchanges with experts I wouldn't have met otherwise. They were surprised and interested in my work, and the discussion led to a real exchange.
The videoconference meetings allowed me to show my work in good conditions, by getting to the point and the experts were just as attentive as in person. “

Founding Gallery

Exit Art Contemporain Gallery

Since 2006, Maria Giovanna Gilotta and Florence Provost have sought to bring contemporary art to a public of both new and experienced collectors.

Each work is there to speak for itself.
Between the perceptive and the conceptual, the playful and the serious, the different languages are all combined in the present tense, with reflection on our generation as the common thread.
The strength of Exit art contemporain's selection lies in its ability to be provocative, amusing or unexpected, yet still able to make its way into our daily lives.

The Exit art contemporain gallery, nomadic in its origins, has now settled in Boulogne-Billancourt, a city with strong cultural potential, and aims to develop the presence of contemporary art here.
