Since 2008, the actions of the Fondation d’entreprise Hermès have been guided by a single, unifying conviction: “Our gestures define us and show who we are”.
The Foundation’s four core missions enact its commitment to targeted philanthropy and support through in-house programmes designed to transmit skills and expertise, create new works of art, protect the environment and encourage gestures of solidarity.
Carte blanche to visual artists in the Hermès workshops
Each year since 2010, the Fondation d’entreprise Hermès has invited artists to explore exceptional gestures and skills at Hermès workshops through its Artists’ Residencies programme. These residencies offer the guest artists carte blanche to expand their creativity alongside Hermès craftspeople, producing original works using singular materials. The residencies lend themselves to unique dialogues and exceptional, unconventional artistic experiments.
