mounir fatmi: Biennale Grandeur Nature - The Spirit of the Forest

at the Château de Fontainebleau

Mounir Fatmi is participating in the second edition of the Biennale Grandeur Nature – The Spirit of the Forest, taking place at the Château de Fontainebleau from May to September 2025.

 

This year’s edition, held across the stunning 130 hectares of the National Estate, invites visitors on a journey through the château’s historic gardens and park, extending into the surrounding forest. The exhibition will feature I Like America, a monumental installation paying tribute to Jacques Derrida, and is part of the presentation of the Jean Chatelus collection donation by the Fondation Antoine de Galbert. Supported by the Sommer Foundation, Grandeur Nature continues to strengthen the connection between the château, its natural setting, and the local community. With the collaboration of the National Forestry Office and the City of Fontainebleau, the project celebrates and reimagines the natural and landscaped heritage of this UNESCO World Heritage Site.
