The venue
The Fondation Pernod Ricard, located since 2020 in the Pernod Ricard headquarters in the Saint Lazare district of Paris, has been committed to the contemporary art scene in France since 1998.
The exhibition space
Four solo or group exhibitions are organized each year in the exhibition space designed by NeM/ Niney et Marca architectes.
Currently: All the Messages Are Emotional - 25th Pernod Ricard Foundation Prize
Aperto - Project Space
Autonomous and dedicated space, Aperto is entirely available to artists, authors, curators, editors, solo or in groups, who wish to devote themselves to the development of a project.
Currently: LYL Radio
Art Wall
Art Wall is an artistic patronage program which, for two years, displays a monumental work of art in front of Pernod Ricard's world headquarters in Paris, chosen by the Group's employees from a selection put forward by the Foundation.
Currently: Carlotta Bailly-Borg, Cloudy, 2022, acrylic, charcoal, digital prints transferred to canvas.
Entrance Pediment
Fully integrated into the architecture, the entrance pediment of the Pernod Ricard Foundation allows artists to hang a painting for a period of two years. TEMPLATE, by Nicolas Chardon, now replaces
Vera Molnar's Hommage à Prévert (1924-2023).
Currently: Nicolas Chardon, TEMPLATE, 2024, print on canvas.
The auditorium
With its 112 seats and its exceptional location (in the prow of the Pernod Ricard headquarters, giving onto one of the main metro exits), the auditorium makes it possible to implement an autonomous programme independent of the timing of the exhibitions. Throughout the year, it is the site of discussions, performing arts, and screenings.
Since 2024, Jagna Ciuchta has succeeded Chloé Quenum as designer of the conference panels.
Current design: Jagna Ciuchta, Liquid Images, 2024.
