2024 : SECOND EDITION
With the Prix Art & Environnement 2024, Lee Ufan Arles and Guerlain wish to develop a creative space enabling conceptual, semantic and aesthetic bridges between the work of young designers and that of Lee Ufan. The Prize is therefore sensitive to strong projects proposing a new vision of our relationship with modernity, as well as to works with long temporalities and a relationship with nature, the environment and materials. Upon winning the prize, the winner will benefit from a
six- to eight-week support program at the beginning of 2025, with a production space and accommodation in the heart of Arles. This "time-space" enables them to carry out their artistic project, but also to meet the people and institutions relevant to its implementation: artists, professionals from the art world and local players, as well as the general public. A member of the Lee Ufan Arles team is assigned to support the laureate in his or her artistic project, through meetings with international and local artists, curators and other players. The residency is followed by an exhibition of the artist's work during the summer, in one of Lee Ufan Arles' spaces.
