Fondation Fiminco
About
The international artists’ residency is at the center of the project: the Fondation Fiminco main mission is to welcome international artists each year for 11 months, giving them the opportunity to develop their work and their research. Designed as a place open to all audiences, the Fondation Fiminco offers visitors the opportunity to experience contemporary creation, through a program of exhibitions, events and meetings with artists-in-residence. The aim of the Fondation is not to build and show a collection, but to support artists throughout their creative process, accompanying their professional and artistic development.
Local Information
Fondation Fiminco has invested a former industrial site in Romainville, on the outskirts of Paris and accessible by the metro, to create a place that supports artists from all over the world and open to all audiences. Designed for artists, this project aims to provide space, tools, and support to create a working environment for artists, across disciplinary practices. This new cultural district brings all the ingredients necessary for a new ecosystem of contemporary creation intended for artists: an artist residency, exhibition spaces, galleries, and soon live performance structures, craftsmen, associations and a concert hall. By investing in this unusual location, the Fondation Fiminco is pursuing its missions to support contemporary artists and providing cultural access for all, as close as possible to the social and cultural dynamics of the Greater Paris.
