True to its ambition of promoting young creation, La Villette presents around forty artists recently graduated from French schools in 100% L’EXPO from April 10 to May 11, 2025. Seven artists graduated from Villa Arson have been selected to participate in this exhibition: Léo Dupré, Valentine Gardiennet, Emika Lannelongue, Carlota Sandoval-Lizarralde, Romain Ravera, Sofia Rocha Mondragon and Murphy Yum.

Villa Arson is pleased to announce the launch of the collection ‘Scratching the surface’ (‘La surface démange’) with the publication of two works: Alternative Pedagogical Spaces: From Utopia to Institutionalization by Anna Colin, and Feminism and Pedagogy at the Heart of Artistic Training: 40 Years of Experience by Griselda Pollock. These two works are also published in English in partnership with Sternberg Press – The MIT Press.

For its third edition, the Magnetic program has selected artist Emilia Beatriz for a residency at Villa Arson and Violaine Barrois for a residency at Cove Park.

Sylvain Lizon, director of the EPA Villa Arson, is pleased to announce the appointment of Marie-Ann Yemsi as the director of the Villa Arson art center. The project led by Marie-Ann Yemsi for the Villa Arson art center is developed under the name “Creating World(s)”, in the sense of “reaffirming the place of art as an essential and common good”.
