New York, September 21, 2023<\/strong> \u2013 Villa Albertine today announced the 2023 recipients of Albertine Grants, a new global program that introduces US audiences to exceptional contemporary French and Francophone creation. In 2023, Villa Albertine and Albertine Foundation will award $1 million to support more than 100 projects across numerous artistic disciplines, including visual art, theater, dance, music, literature, virtual and augmented reality, film, and craft and design (with support from the Bettencourt Schuller Foundation),  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For 30 years the Cultural Services of the French Embassy, alongside FACE Foundation, have provided significant and wide-ranging support for contemporary art and performance from the French-speaking world in the US. In 2021, the launch of Villa Albertine strengthened and expanded these efforts with a new and innovative residency program for 50+ global creators annually. With Albertine Grants, Villa Albertine and Albertine Foundation (FACE Foundation\u2019s new name) make an annual commitment of unprecedented scale to further nurture the development and exchange of contemporary creation among the next generation of international artists. <\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

 \u201cThe relationship between our two countries is exceptional, but it is not set in stone; it evolves, and we must constantly and actively work to renew it. That’s what Villa Albertine is doing here, through culture, and I’d like to congratulate once again all those involved in this great initiative,\u201d stated Catherine Colonna, Minister for Europe and Foreign Affairs. <\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSince our inception, Villa Albertine and our loyal partners have worked to nurture artistic creation and cross-cultural community by welcoming excellent emerging and established artists to all corners of the United States for customized residencies. But because our ambition is a 360-degree model of artistic support, we must also create opportunities for residents after<\/em> their residency, as well as supporting creators for whom residencies are not the right resource. With the launch of Albertine Grants, Villa Albertine and Albertine Foundation put our full and unequivocal trust in the next generation of artists, who are essential to helping us understand this world in crisis,\u201d stated Ga\u00ebtan Bruel, Director of Villa Albertine. <\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe launch of Albertine Grants is an exciting opportunity for cultural exchange between artists, creators, and thinkers from the French speaking world and their counterparts in the United States. FACE Foundation, which is also transforming to become Albertine Foundation, has always sought to encourage cultural dialogue between countries by nurturing innovative ideas and trailblazing work across multiple fields. Today, and alongside our partner Villa Albertine, we are thrilled to announce the launch of Albertine Grants which will provide a unique platform of development for a new generation of creators,\u201d stated Laurent Auffret, Executive Director of Albertine Foundation.<\/strong>  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The projects selected for 2023 are diverse and timely, representing some of the best contemporary creation in France and beyond. Multidisciplinary artist Bianca Bondi<\/strong>\u2019s monographic exhibition at Dallas Contemporary, built on research into the Highway Beautification Act of 1965, presents a monumental artificial landscape representing the struggle between the natural and commercial world. With Moving Voices<\/em> (Voix \u00c9mouvantes), jazz artist Alon Nechushtan <\/strong>and his Franco-American quartet <\/strong>interweave vivid voices of migration that traverse time, space, and place, from \u2018the jungle\u2019 refugee camp in Calais to the stairs of Ellis Island. In ANIMA<\/em>, an immersive multidisciplinary installation-performance, French visual artist\/photographer No\u00e9mie Goudal <\/strong>and stage director Ma\u00eblle Po\u00e9sy <\/strong>center the history of the Sahara and its transformation from a lush forest to the most arid place on earth to address the earth\u2019s climate future.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The full list of grantees is below. All are selected by independent juries of industry experts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Funds are granted directly to artists, curators, exhibition spaces, performance venues, festivals, publishers, and translators to bring the selected projects to the US and make them accessible to American audiences. In the process Albertine Grants strengthens international collaborations, empowers up-and-coming talent, supporting American non-profit organizations and increases access to global art in the United States and France.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to longstanding grant programs founded by the Cultural Services of the French Embassy decades ago, Albertine Grants includes many more recent initiatives, including a new partnership with the Mobilier National (the foremost French cultural institution for crafts and design). This new partnership, in parallel with the French state\u2019s declaration of increased support for the field of design, makes over $125,000 available to up-and-coming French and France based craftspeople, designers, galleries, and exhibition spaces to support their professional development and exposure to new audiences in the US, with a particular concentration during NYCxDesign Week.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond its grantmaking activities and customized residencies, Villa Albertine organizes incubator programs for culture professionals, a bustling calendar of cross-cultural events around the US, and a print magazine and podcast titled States. Headquartered in New York, Villa Albertine\u2019s mission to deepen cultural connections between the French-speaking world and the US is carried forward by a network of offices located in 10 cities across the US, representing the diversity of the American experience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Villa Albertine\u2019s selection of 2023 Albertine Grants is made possible thanks to the generous support of our institutional and corporate partners, including the Bettencourt Schuller Foundation which support specific residencies for design and craft), Florence Gould Foundation, Ford Foundation, ARDIAN, the Louis Roederer Foundation, the Centre national du cin\u00e9ma et de l’image anim\u00e9e (CNC), Chanel, Van Cleef & Arpels, ADAGP, the Franco-American Cultural Fund, the Institut fran\u00e7ais, the Minist\u00e8re de la Culture, Unifrance, Mobilier national, the Centre national de la musique (CNM), and SACEM.   <\/em> <\/p>\n\n\n\n
