The AIAP Exhibition: ‘MONACO, IN THE SHADOW OF THE WIND’

The AIAP Exhibition will celebrate the 70th anniversary of the Monegasque National Committee of the International Association of Plastic Arts (AIAP) at UNESCO from September 25th till October 12th in Salle d’Exposition du Quai Antoine I.

The opening reception will be held on Wednesday, September 24th at 6:00 p.m.

‘MONACO, IN THE SHADOW OF THE WIND’
Daily, from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. – Free Admission

For this new edition, the artists were invited to reflect on what the Principality evokes in us, guided by an allegory of the wind, a constant element of our Mediterranean lands, whose title plays on its meaning and rhythm. ‘Monaco, in the Shadow of the Wind’ humbly recalls what the rock has always brought to the shores of this small, unspoiled port: a peaceful and quality life.

This year, 2025, also marks the 70th anniversary of the Monegasque National Committee, one of the first committees to be created under the auspices of UNESCO. This anniversary allows us to reveal some historical pieces from the founding artists, thanks to loans from collectors, accompanied by archival documents that mark the beginnings of our Association.
