From 7 to 10 February 2022, as part of the French Presidency of the European Union, the Grand Palais Éphémère presented the first edition of EuroFabrique, hosting 400 students, 35 schools from 13 European countries, 19 projects, 2,600 visitors on February 10 featuring 3 conferences, 6 performances, 4 days of workshops. The topic “Reinventing Europe” at the heart of EuroFabrique is the desire to give a voice to the European Youth, to question the idea of Europe and imagine its future. Eurofabrique was designed to encourage reflection on the idea of Europe, bringing together the energy and creativity of emerging artists and designers from all over Europe. For four days in February 2022, the Grand Palais Éphémère become a collaborative and transdisciplinary 10,000 sq workshop, somewhere between a hackathon and a giant studio, bringing together 400 students from 35 European art and design higher schools, selected through open calls, to reflect on the continent they live on. A 36th ephemeral school bringing together artists at risk was also composed for the occasion. For 4 days, art and design students from all over Europe materialized the forms, imaginations and desires capable of re-enchanting the idea of Europe. What does it mean to be European today? How to make Europe a desirable environment and future perspective? How to link it to the rest of the world, through which principles, which links, which attachments? And if Europe is a project, how to revive it? To explore those questions, the students worked in binational partnership to design 19 joint projects that questioned the values, problems and debates of Europe today. The responses were taken in multiple forms, from performance to sculpture, textile creation, drawings or sound. On the third day, the projects were presented and debated with great personalities – artists, intellectuals, scientists, politicians – who in their journey had questioned and renewed the European project. These moments of exchange allowed students to expose their work processes and their artistic and intellectual approaches. 2 600 visitors came on the last day to discover the works in progress and interact with the contributions from the top art and design schools to the public debate on the present and future of Europe: a journey through forms, images, stories and myths that shape a shared world.
