Villa Albertine Chicago is happy to renew its partnership with EXPO Chicago, and to organize a panel on different ways of supporting artists in an international career across gallery representation, institutional exposure and international collecting alongside artist Paul Maheke, current resident of Villa Albertine in Chicago.
Panelists | Guillaume Désanges (Palais de Tokyo, Paris), Mariane Ibrahim (Mariane Ibrahim Gallery, Chicago, Paris, Mexico City), Paul Maheke (Visual artist, Villa Albertine resident in Chicago), Jérôme Poggi (Jérôme Poggi Gallery, Paris). Moderated by Armelle Malvoisin (Beaux Arts Magazine, Quotidien de l’Art).
Over the last decade the relationship between Paris and Chicago’s artistic scenes has continued to deepen thanks to support for artist exchanges through commercial galleries, museums, government-funded residencies and French collectors based in Chicago and Paris. Gallerists Jérôme Poggi (Jérôme Poggi Gallery) and Mariane Ibrahim (Mariane Ibrahim Gallery, Chicago, Paris, Mexico) and museum president Guillaume Désanges (Palais de Tokyo) will discuss different ways of supporting artists in an international career across gallery representation, institutional exposure and international collecting alongside artist Paul Maheke, current resident of Villa Albertine in Chicago. In addition, panelists will discuss the particular role Chicago plays in their individual and collective practices as art and culture professionals across the world.
