The , established at Reid Hall in 2010, is one of Columbia University’s eleven global centers. It aims to promote research, teaching, and transnational collaboration. Through its scholarly and cultural programming, its Atelier podcast, and its civic engagement initiatives, the Paris Global Center strengthens Columbia University’s connections in France and internationally while providing a platform for intellectual exploration of social and environmental issues in the arts, humanities, and social sciences.
brings together major global initiatives from across the university including the Columbia Global Centers, Columbia World Projects, the Committee on Global Thought, the Institute for Ideas and Imagination, and Undergraduate Global Engagement.
is a "living" newspaper on stage and without capture, where journalists and authors who tell stories in images, sounds, words, drawings (and just as nothing can be seen) succeeding each other. There are sections and pages that turn around without transition as in a "real" magazine. Except that it's a moment shared collectively, an experience around the narrative. It's not trivial – the pairs of eyes in front of you – but it also sends back a lot of warmth, this audience in the flesh... and haven't met an author who has regretted going on stage yet. We really do this for the love of journalism, narrative, and decompartmentalization of repertoires (press, documentary, literature, photography, data, research, performance). It is a space of freedom and subjectivity, and, at the same time, of narrative requirement, of nuanced precision in the report of the real. The programme is not announced in advance. The evening is unique, the moment is paramount, we are trying to bring about emotion, while establishing facts.
Venue
Nestled in the Montparnasse district, Reid Hall hosts several Columbia University initiatives: the Columbia Global Paris Center, the Institute for Ideas and Imagination, the Columbia Undergraduate Programs, the M.A. in History and Literature, and the GSAPP Shape of Two Cities Program. This unique combination of resources is enhanced by our global network whose mission is to expand the University's engagement with the world through educational programs, research initiatives, regional partnerships, and public events.
This event will take place in Reid Hall’s Grande Salle Ginsberg-LeClerc, built in 1912 and extensively renovated in 2023 thanks to the generous support of Judith Ginsberg and Paul LeClerc.
