Free, daring, multi-generational, inclusive, and collaborative, Paris Internationale maintains its founding values through a selection that reflects the richness and diversity of a new generation of galleries and artists they support. Founded by and for these galleries as an innovative alternative to traditional art fairs, Paris Internationale selects its participants for their influence within local ecosystems, as well as their importance on the global art scene and their specific projects for Paris.

In addition to these key players who define today’s art scene, Paris Internationale pursues each year its forward-looking and committed approach by welcoming non-profit organizations. They are invited to take part in the fair free of charge in order to promote their essential actions, both to the vitality of debates on contemporary creation and to the visibility of emerging artists and those evolving outside the traditional market circuits. This year, five of them have been selected: Brihatta Art Foundation (Dhaka, Bangladesh), Goswell Road (Paris, France), Joy (Paris, France), kim? (Riga, Latvia) and Something, (Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire).

Paris Internationale’s 2023 public programs celebrate the links between the artists from its community and the curators, directors of institutions, and other professionals involved in contemporary art. Inclusive and open to the world as much as to all the French territories that make its diversity a strength, Paris Internationale also echoes institutions that are sometimes under-represented.
Entrance to Paris Internationale is free but requires registration. You can do it HERE.
