Numéro - "Mondino Numéro 20 ans" Exhibition
The Acacias Art Center hosted the Mondino Numéro 20th anniversary exhibition.
In July 2019, we transformed the Acacias Art Center into a photo studio to unveil Jean-Baptiste Mondino’s prolific creativity in 100 images. Over the years, the artist, a lifelong friend of *Numéro*, immortalized some of the most influential personalities. The photographer cultivates a keen curiosity for his contemporaries, musicians and actors. With a genuine desire to reveal their singular energy, Mondino transcends reality into images.
Nourished by his love of music, from rock to hip-hop, his images reflect the many facets and cultures of our time.

Reiffers Art Initiatives - "Infiltrées, 5 manières d'habiter le monde" Exhibition
"INFILTRÉES – 5 manières d’habiter le monde" is the second group exhibition of the Reiffers Art Initiatives 2023 Prize.
The exhibition "Infiltrées - 5 manières d'habiter le monde" highlight the artistic process of five emerging artists from the contemporary scene: Meriem Bennani, Han Bing, Bianca Bondi, Binta Diaw and Ser Serpas.
The exhibition invites the five artists to take over the Acacias Art Center - whose new architecture will be revealed on this occasion - to display works that are almost entirely new. Artists who are not content to simply engage with the world, but who work just as hard to reconfigure it aesthetically and conceptually to propose other visions and other ways of making the world, together. At the end of the exhibition, one of them will be awarded the Reiffers Prize. With the support of Mazarine Group and La Mode en Images.
For the second edition of the Reiffers Art Initiatives Prize, the artistic committee members chose five emerging artists from the contemporary scene. This new group exhibition highlighted the artistic approach of these young talents. This year's prize goes to the artist Serpas.
The artist's works form abstract poems that tell of our relationship with our environment and our ability to make it our own, to reassemble it as much as to sublimate it. Represented by Galerie Balice Hertling, the artist is not content to simply grapple with the world, but works just as hard to reconfigure it aesthetically and conceptually, to propose other imaginaries and other ways of making the world, together. Voted for by the public and the Reiffers Art Initiatives artistic committee, the work of this young American artist living in Paris was singled out for its artistic approach and the sensitivity of its works, which faithfully reflect the tensions shaking today's society.
The art book "Infiltrées - 5 manières d'habiter le monde" features the exhibition at the Acacias Art Center of the 2023 edition of the Reiffers Art Initiatives Prize.
The exhibition featured works by five emerging women artists from four continents (Africa, America, Asia and Europe), selected by the artistic committee: Meriem Bennani, Han Bing, Binta Diaw, Bianca Bondi and Ser Serpas, the 2023 winner.
Reiffers Art Initiatives is a foundation created to support young contemporary creation and cultural diversity.
Reiffers Art Initiatives’ mission is to support France’s new art scene and give it international visibility. It finances and gives exposure to thirty emerging artists every year, who will influence tomorrow’s contemporary art scene.
