Exhibitions, Academic & Publication Programs

The Paris Center facilitates the use of the Terra Foundation for American Art collection throughout Europe and works with curators to create opportunities to view and study the visual arts of the United States, through exhibition grants and partnerships. Additionally, we organize exhibitions, provide curatorial assistance, and serve as a liaison for museums seeking international contacts and venues.
 
Academic programs are developed in close collaboration with institutions throughout Europe to encourage research and teaching on American art and to create international forums for the exchange of ideas. These programs include lectures and symposia, fellowships and academic opportunities, and residential programs for scholars, such as the Terra Summer Residency in Giverny, France. Download information on the 2012-2013 teaching programs in Berlin, London and Paris.
