THE DRAWING NOW PRIZE
Since 2011, the Drawing Now Prize has been used to support a draftsman artist and to salute the work of his gallery.
For this11th Drawing Now Prize, the formula evolves to give more scope and visibility to the practice of the winning artist and implement this award as a grant to help creation where the Drawing sphere - including Drawing Now Art Fair and the Drawing Lab - joins forces to offer: 5,000 euros in endowment, 10,000 euros in production aid, a 3-month exhibition at the Drawing Lab and the publication of a monographic catalogue.
LE PRINTEMPS DU DESSIN
Since 2007, with the launch of the Salon du dessin, Christine Phal and Carine Tissot, collectors and enthusiasts of contemporary drawing, have brought together a community of art lovers, professionals and curious people eager to support contemporary creation. By setting up Le Printemps du dessin, they want to make a great drawing festival at the national level from March to June.
From mid-March to mid-June, we federate the drawing exhibitions that take place in institutions or art centers and all actions such as workshops, workshops, conferences and meetings between the artist and the public. Thus the medium of drawing in all its forms allows different audiences (school, prevented, etc.) to be as close as possible to artists and creation.
