The Aurelie Nemours Prize was founded in 2000 by Aurelie Nemours, one of the major artists of geometric abstraction in the second half of the twentieth century. It rewards any artist, regardless of his discipline, whose work pursues the rigorous and spiritually imbued plastic quest that has been his own. She wrote: "Thinking that art is a struggle against the disarray of our civilization, I firmly believe that the spiritual charge of art is the only recourse and the only salvation."
"My art is not merely an elegy for the past. It is a reflection on the complexities of contemporary life—the dizzying pace of change, the contradictions of progress, and the lingering nostalgia for a simpler, more tangible existence."
Jaime Urdiales, born in 1994 in Spain, is a contemporary artist whose evocative works capture the intersection of nostalgia and urban life. Raised in the tranquil, mountainous village of Losar De la Vera, Urdiales' early years were steeped in the serene rhythms of countryside living. These formative experiences, combined with a passion for classic Hollywood cinema, instilled in him a romanticized vision of the lifestyle depicted in films.

For two decades, M+B has showcased the works of LeRoy Grannis, one of the most iconic photographers in the history of surfing.

Katharina Grosse has been invited to occupy the Grande Nef, the majestic, continuous and unencumbered space that soars to a height more than 20 meters. For this event, the artist is planning to create a project that uses as its starting point an installation of considerable scope created for the Carriageworks in Sydney. Some 8,000 m² of fabric suspended from the ceiling by enormous knots will form a new space inside the gallery, taking the form of an immense drapery whose exuberant colours and energy will spill out from the Grande Nef onto the forecourt of the Centre Pompidou-Metz.
