Institut des hautes études en arts plastiques

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Institut des hautes études en arts plastiques (IHEAP) is a post-graduate art school based in Paris for research and experimentation in art.

History

[edit]

IHEAP 1985–1995

[edit]

In 1985, the City of Paris commissioned Pontus Hulten to design a graduate school for research in contemporary art, similar in spirit to the Bauhaus and Black Mountain College in the U.S., to function as an alternative to the École nationale supérieure des beaux-arts.[1] Hulten conceived of the Institut as a center for contemporary research in artistic creation, with just 20 students, all graduates, each year.[2] The Institute operated from 1988 to 1995.[3]

IHEAP 2012

[edit]

In 2012, the Biennale de Paris open a new Institut des hautes études en arts plastiques (IHEAP), according to its own viewpoints while also reactivating those of earlier institutions.[citation needed] Drawing on the original model, the new IHEAP kept its name, intentions, idea of a simple structure, necessity of transversality and discussion, and its international dimension.

Buren Lawsuit

[edit]

In March 2015, the French artist Daniel Buren, one of the professors in the original IHEAP, filed suit in the High Court of Paris against the newer IHEAP organization founded in 2012.[4] In an open letter published on his web site, Buren claimed that the 2012 IHEAP improperly usurped the name and reputation of the original IHEAP.[5]
