To answer the questions which artists, collectors, gallery owners are asking themselves in the current situation. we are living through a financial and social crisis, which people speak much of. we are also living through a cultural crisis, the existence of which we pretend to deny. For the Fid to fulfill its task, it must become the meeting place of inheritance and future. a meeting of inheritance—experience, know- how, the great tradition of european drawing—and future: the students of the art universities of all of europe. This is our bet on the future: transmission. serghei litvin welcome 03 Serghei Litvin, president of the jury Camilla Adami, painter Christian Depardieu, director of the depardieu gallery (nice) Pierre Durieu, mazarine bookshop (modern and contemporary art) Pantelis Makkas, video artist Hadrien de Montferrand, montferrand gallery (Beijing) Charles Penwarden, writer and contemporary-art collector Alice Pfeiffer, art journalist (new york Times, art in america) Vladimir Velickovic, artist, member of the académie jury 04 STAATLICHE AKADEMIE DER BILDENDEN KUNSTE FINNISH ACADEMY OF FINE ARTS (Karlsruhe, GERMANY) (Helsinki, FINLAND) official partner stephanie abben eveliina hämäläinen nastassia atrakhovich marion roger patrizia liguda julia sinner ÉCOLE NATIONALE SUPÉRIEURE D’ARTS PARIS-CERGY (Paris-Cergy, FRANCE) official partner ACADÉMIE ROYALE DES BEAUX-ARTS DE BRUXELLES (Brussels, BELGIUM) camille amzallag paul maheke aurélie Gravelat hélène moreau ÉCOLE NATIONALE SUPÉRIEURE DES BEAUX-ARTS DE PARIS (Paris, FRANCE) ÉCOLE NATIONALE SUPÉRIEURE DES ARTS VISUELS (Brussels, BELGIUM) official partner léonore aberdam nour awada Élisa espen mireille Blanc lucie Kohler laura cambon marijke noppe marie anne Franqueville marie Tribolet Kristína hecková sofia hihat woojung hoh DET FYNSKE KUNSTAKADEMI anne leclerc (Odense, DENMARK) anne lopez charalambos margaritis pascal mayet yuichiro moriyama marc moyano Félix pinquier AALTO UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF ART AND DESIGN camille rosa (Helsinki, FINLAND) official partner Thibault scemama de Gialluly adrian schindler laura ukkonen Ken sortais lise stoufflet nima Zaree nahandi arT schools 05 ÉCOLE SUPÉRIEURE D’ART DE CAMBRAI ACCADEMIA DI BRERA (Cambrai, FRANCE) official partner (Milano, ITALY) official partner alice steinmetz olga abramova Francesca agnelli alessandra Belloni VILLA ARSON NICE (Nice, FRANCE) official partner FACULTÉ DES BEAUX-ARTS DE BELGRADE hugo ansel (Belgrad, SERBIA) official partner chloé delarue julien laugier Tanja Bogdanic rafaela lopez ana cvejic jean-charles michelet lidija delic pauline stork Biljana Veselinovic SLADE SCHOOL OF FINE ARTS ÉCOLE CANTONALE D’ART DU VALAIS (London, GREAT BRITAIN) (Sierre, SWITZERLAND) official partner Georgie Flood omar Ba yoonjin jung HAUTE ÉCOLE D’ART ET DE DESIGN WINCHESTER SCHOOL OF ART (Geneva, SWITZERLAND) official partner (Winchester, GREAT BRITAIN) official partner aurélie menaldo edward lawrenson arT schools 06 École naTionale supÉrieure des arTs Visuels de la camBre (Brussels, BelGium) elisa espen lucie Kohler marijke noppe marie Tribolet The École nationale supérieure des arts Visuals de la cambre, in Brussels, provides seventeen majors, each associated with a discipline of the visual arts or of design, and offers a five-year education resulting in a masters degree. The teaching of drawing holds an important place at la cambre under two essential forms: j ury 2002 Tessy Bauer (atelier de dessin g\d isabelle Guissart, Brice Guilbert, un visiteur, nathalie Garot) first, that of a course in figure drawing given to the students of all of the majors in their first year, and, second, that of a major devoted to drawing as a mode of expression in its own right. la cambre by the numbers: it is in this latter major that all of the students of la cambre participating in the 2010 Fid are enrolled. on the occasion of its - 17 artistic options 30th anniversary, the drawing department is organizing an exhibition - 680 students from 1st to 5th year, of which 38 students are in the of students’ drawings made between 1980 and today. drawing option. a catalogue is in press. - 230 faculty members (professors, assistant professors, and lecturers) - 72 diplomas in june 2009 (masters degree), 5 of which were in the caroline mierop, director drawing option. arT schools 07 al i a To un VersiTy school oF arT and desiGn (helsinKi, Finland) laura ukkonen DRAWr o die! drawing is perhaps the most essential native tongue, esperanto and basic skill taught for everybody in TaiK (aalto university school of art and design, department of art). at least that’s how most of us in the department of art think. maybe others feel similarly too, since not only students of fine arts but also students of for example film and photography go through obligatory drawing classes. our new tactic about teaching drawing is «schizophrenic»: already on the first drawing course the students are taught both traditional model drawing and introduced to wildly different uses of drawing in contemporary art. our idea is that drawing is not just a rudimentary basic skill but also a valid and living contemporary art practice. a dventures of a witch Girl, by Teemu mäki and his 6-year-old daughter ursula Teemu mÄKi artist, professor of Fine arts (doctor of Fine arts) Vice director, department of art arT schools 08 The Finnish academy oF Fine arTs (helsinKi, Finland) eveliina hämäläinen marion roger The Finnish academy of Fine arts has strengthened its teaching of drawing in the past years. The return to the roots of the 162-year old art school has happened by systematically emphasizing the value of teaching of drawing and by offering an increasing number of opportunities to practise drawing in the academy. nowadays a special drawing class gathers twice a week. students may attend the class when it suits their schedules – a model and materials are provided by the academy on these given times. For the first year students who start their studies in the academy, the drawing classes are part of the compulsory studies. The teaching of drawing is mainly based on practice but there are also lectures and critiques as well as open discussions with artists who use drawing in their artistic work. rector markus Konttinen arT schools 09 É acole n Tionale supÉrieure d’arTs (paris-cerGy, France) camille amzallag paul maheke The École nationale supérieure d’arts is a French public entity under the supervision of the ministry of culture and communication. The “art” option, which defines the school’s curriculum, orients it towards a critical and creative approach to artistic practices. open to the world of our time and to its changes, the school responds with a poetic and creative questioning of the present. over five years, its curriculum has favored the intercrossing of disciplines. situated between paris and cergy, the school sees itself and experiences itself as an offshore rig. a place of exchange, of meeting, and of creation, the school resolutely engages that which will bring it outside of itself. arT schools 10 Écolep su Érieure d’arT de camBrai (France) alice steinmetz c ommunication major—99 students in 2009/2010 1st and 2nd semester: the 30 students follow a weekly 4-hour course focusing primarily on life drawing and graphic experimentation. The goal is to sharpen the students’ gaze and their curiosity, and to foster a personal style. Teacher c. Bouvier studio, expression through drawing: 4 hours a week, open to all students from the 3rd semester on (31 enrolled). here one develops a personal mode of thought and expression through drawing. The student defines a line of research and ensures that drawing will play a role in the different stages of his or her project, with the final realization calling upon drawing itself or on other practices. directed by G Bachelet, illustrator, and c.
