Grand Prix for the Artists of Tomor­row – Alain Godon Trophy

A urélie Poinat made her mark with the judges by cre­at­ing an “inti­macy of space” So what moti­vates Alain Godon (who also man­ages to round up all his rel­a­tives for the event)? An artist of some rep­u­ta­tion who exhibits glob­ally, a pic­to­r­ial, inno­v­a­tive pio­neer who could set­tle as eas­ily into his art as oth­ers may set­tle into their slippers

He con­stantly lives life pre­car­i­ously and relent­lessly exhausts him­self for a cause that seems to com­pletely take over his life, even to the detri­ment of his own finan­cial well-​being: boost­ing the careers of young artists! In a story of a love of art that started over 3 years ago in the town of Le Tou­quet, he has also man­aged to prove his organ­i­sa­tional tal­ents and received unan­i­mous acclaim from the 448 pre-​selected artists (with over one thou­sand can­di­da­tures): painters, sculp­tors, pho­tog­ra­phers, instal­la­tion artists (instal­la­tion is a con­tem­po­rary art move­ment that cre­ates a work of art by com­bin­ing sev­eral medi­ums with the objec­tive of chang­ing the spectator’s expe­ri­ence within a sin­gle space or pre-​set def­i­n­i­tions), but, more­over, dur­ing the first week­end in July 2011, with the excep­tion of the usual mal­con­tents, the whole resort was treated by art lovers to a qual­ity, global, cul­tural expe­ri­ence (which was also totally free for vis­i­tors and exhibitors).
