PARIS.- The second edition of CHOICES will take place in Paris from 29 to 31 May 2015. For three days, 40 art galleries will join together to offer an itinerary through their respective exhibitions, but also a major group exhibition at the École nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts.

In 2015, CHOICES will take us from Belleville to Saint-Germain by way of the Marais, the Rue Louise Weiss, the Palais-Royal and Pantin. Many private viewings will be organized throughout the weekend.

In addition, each of the participating galleries will showcase one of its artists within a major exhibition curated by Alfred Pacquement, in collaboration with a group of students of the Beaux-Arts de Paris brought together by Jean-Luc Vilmouth, director of the Department of studies. The former director of the Musée national d’art moderne, Alfred Pacquement was also the director of the Beaux-Arts de Paris from 1996 to 2000. The CHOICES exhibition will be open to the public (free admission) on Saturday 30th and Sunday 31st in the Ecole’s Palais des Études. There will be an invitation-only opening on Friday May 29th.

A key event for contemporary art in Paris, CHOICES offers collectors, art professionals and art lovers from France and abroad many opportunities for meeting and sharing.

After a highly successful first edition in 2014 with 35 participating galleries, drawing over 3000 visitors in three days for the group exhibition and collectors from 12 different countries, CHOICES will be welcoming a dozen new galleries. Headed by Marion Papillon (deputy director of the Claudine Papillon Gallery), the event highlights the vibrancy and quality of the Parisian art scene, and is supported by several prestigious sponsors.
