For the fifth consecutive year and as part of the European cultural season, Experience Pommery #5: L'art en Europe will present a selection of the best young European artists. This year the event is organized by the French art magazine Beaux Arts editors-in-chief Fabrice Bousteau, who asked the main contemporary art magazines published in Europe to select two of the best young artists from their countries.
Finland’s Taide magazine selected Adel Abidin and Terike Haapoja. Both artists will present exclusive new projects specially commissioned for the event.
L'Art en Europe will take place from June 12 to December 31, 2008 at Domaine Pommery, a major champagne producer in Reims (45 minutes from Paris), which organizes contemporary art exhibitions since 5 years (the last one, "L'emprise du lieu," was curated by French artist Daniel Buren in 2007) - to get an idea of the exhibition site and of the last exhibition, you can visit the website of the Domaine Pommery. Some of the other participating artists will be: Enrique Marty (Spain), Raul Keller (Estonia), Su-Mei Tse (Luxembourg), Nicholas Keogh & Paddy Bloomer (Ireland).
