Centre national édition art image

The Centre National Edition Art Image sits on the Île des Impressionnistes and offers specialized printing studios, exhibition spaces, and residency programs for contemporary artists. The facilities support artistic production through workshops and document work through extensive archives.

The facility was founded in 1997 and initially focused on printmaking before expanding its scope to broader contemporary art practices. The Seine island location was central to its identity from the start.

The center takes its name from its focus on artistic edition and image production, with its collections showing works that document various techniques in contemporary art making. Visitors can see the works and spaces where artists realize their projects.

The venue is best visited in daytime hours to appreciate details of the exhibitions and workshops fully. The island location makes access straightforward for pedestrians coming by the surrounding bridges.

The center is home to the Maison Flottante, a floating artist residence designed by the renowned designer duo Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec. This unusual residency project allows international artists to live directly on the Seine while developing their work.
