Encouraging Artistic Expression

The BNP Paribas Foundation has always taken up the challenge of contemporary art, choosing to support artistic teams in disciplines that have traditionally received limited supported from corporate philanthropy: Contemporary dance and the circus arts.

In recent years, the performing arts have been enriched by the contributions of artists eager to reach out to new audiences. Whether on major stages or in more remote and unusual venues, their paths have taken them throughout France and abroad.
