Louis roederer,
a Major Patron of Culture and Arts
The Louis Roederer Foundation supports
contemporary artistic creation and the transmission of knowledge,
thus contributing to a greater understanding of the world and to mutual respect.
Philosophy
Convinced of the contribution the Arts make to a greater understanding of the world, fostering mutual respect and representing a catalyst and vector of social and environmental change, the Louis Roederer Foundation supports contemporary artistic creation and the transmission of knowledge.
Spheres of action
While photography has held a special place in the Foundation's work since its discovery of the photography collection of the Bibliothèque nationale de France in 2003, every artistic field is celebrated, with as a common thread the demand for innovative thinking and invigorating creation. As part of its continued commitment to institutions, artists and researchers, the Louis Roederer Foundation is also looking to highlight all of them by setting up and organising special events to raise their profiles.
Missions
The Foundation has been supporting ambitious cultural projects launched by leading institutions in France and abroad since it was set up in 2011. It is looking to strengthen its international commitment while establishing itself on a local level alongside the major Arts institutions in every region where the “Maisons” of Roederer Collection are present.
The Louis Roederer Foundation actively supports contemporary artistic creation. In France, it sponsors the Louis Roederer Foundation Discovery Award at the Rencontres de la photographie d'Arles, the Louis Roederer Foundation Revelation Prize at the Deauville American Film Festival and the Louis Roederer Foundation Rising Star Award at the Semaine de la Critique, the parallel section of the Cannes Film Festival. In Italy, it provides strong support welcoming residents to the French Academy in Rome - Villa Medici. In 2023, it became patron of the Villa Albertine residencies and specific grants in the United States.
The Foundation is also committed to promoting the transmission of knowledge through sponsorship of the Bibliothèque nationale de France Photography Research Grant, Jeu de Paume Photography Festival, as well as major exhibitions by the Réunion des musées nationaux - Grand Palais in Paris.
The Foundation is also itself a source of proposals. It wants to set up and design cultural events that explore both the fields of creation and ideas. These events will be open to everyone, combining artistic commissions, conferences and discussions with people in the world of the Arts and Culture, in each domain of Roederer Collection. Each action will celebrate a different artistic field.
Louis Roederer Photography Prize for Sustainability
The Louis Roederer Foundation is convinced that no development can be sustainable without a strong cultural component. The Louis Roederer Photography Prize for Sustainability will support both creation and ethical considerations by rewarding a photographer who has tackled an environmental issue. The winner will be announced by an international jury made up of personalities from the Arts world. Nominators will select and submit photographers from all continents to the jury to ensure a broad range of current global concerns.
Collection
The Foundation is also a collection of works by emerging and established artists in all media. The collection is guided by the notion of memory.
Team
To maintain total independence, Audrey Bazin, an art historian, was appointed Artistic Director at the end of 2022, reporting directly to Frédéric Rouzaud, President of the Foundation.
