Artists in residence
Each year, the Cité internationale des arts welcomes more than 1,000 artists from around the world, offering them a space for creation, research, and exchange in Paris, in the Marais and Montmartre districts. Open to all artistic disciplines—visual arts, music, literature, film, design and architecture, performing arts, and curating—it enables artists to develop their projects in an environment that fosters experimentation and meaningful connections.

Cinema
Born in the United Kingdom, Beatrice Gibson lives and works between London and Palermo. Her films are known for their experimental and emotive nature.
Resolutely feminist in form and content they explore the personal and the political and draw on cult figures from experimental literature and poetry – from Kathy Acker to Gertrude Stein. Collapsing fiction and documentary, they range from experimental autobiography to nocturnal thriller and cast friends and influences as their characters and co creators.
Beatrice Gibson has recently had exhibitions at Ordet (Italy, 2023), Fondazione Prada (Italy, 2023), Camden Arts Centre (UK, 2019), Mercer Union (Canada, 2019) and KW Institute for Contemporary Art (Germany, 2018). Her latest film Deux soeurs (qui ne sont pas des soeurs), premiered at The Cannes Film Festival in 2019.
