In an evening dedicated to academic rigor and artistic achievement, the École Supérieure d’Arts Plastiques - Pavillon Bosio hosted its traditional year-end award ceremony in the Cour d’Honneur of the Mairie de Monaco, gathering prominent figures, municipal representatives, and institutional leaders to honor the institution’s standout students. The ceremony was held in the presence of Mademoiselle Mélanie-Antoinette de Massy, alongside Jean-Marc Deoriti-Castellini, the Deputy Mayor delegated to the Pavillon Bosio, members of the Conseil Communal, and Thierry Leviez, Director of the Pavillon Bosio, highlighting the communal and institutional support behind the principality's developing artistic talent.
The academic metrics released during the event underscore a highly successful year for the institution, particularly within its core degree programs. The Diplôme National d’Art, which is equivalent to a Bachelor’s degree, achieved a 100 percent pass rate across its 12 graduates, with two students receiving specific commendations from the jury. Mirroring this success, the Master's-equivalent program, the Diplôme National Supérieur d’Expression Plastique, saw 11 students graduate, with six earning jury commendations.
Beyond standard degree conferrals, several distinctions were awarded during the evening to further elevate the graduates' professional prospects. Notably, the Prix Bosio/Incognito was presented to the top graduate of the Master's-equivalent program, an honor that includes an opportunity to showcase work in an upcoming exhibition at the Incognito Artclub gallery, a 24-hour venue located in Paris. Additionally, the ceremony recognized community involvement and foundational education by presenting awards to eight meritorious young students participating in the institution's public workshops.
