Seven Artists Win the 25th Fondation Pernod Ricard Prize
“All the Messages Are Emotional”. Based on this principle, the seven participating artists – Clémentine Adou, Paul Maheke, Charlotte Houette, Madison Bycroft, Lenio Kaklea, HaYoung and Mona Varichon – have been collectively awarded the 25th Fondation Pernod Ricard Prize.
For 25 years, the award has consisted of the purchase of a work from the winning artist, to be donated to the Musée National d’Art Moderne – Centre Pompidou. Through the Prize, the Foundation helps to promote the work of artists under 40, ensuring it gets visibility from both professionals in the art world and the general public. After the award ceremony, guests could enjoy a vegan cocktail created by chefs Franck Baranger, Pauline Labrousse and the gang from La Pantruchoise, as well as Hypnotic Brass Ensemble’s live performance and Hen Yanni and Fanny Twin’s DJ sets, which set the dancefloor alight.
