Patron Diptyque, a partner of the Beaux-Arts de Paris since 2022, has announced the four scholarship recipients for the 2026 edition, aimed at supporting students in their artistic and professional paths.

For this fifth edition, Diptyque is awarding four scholarships. Guilherme Ferreira de Oliveira and Joris Papin, 5th-year graduates, have received the 'bourses d’envol' (launch scholarships). They will each receive €10,000 in financial support and a year of mentorship from curator Emilie Villez, focusing on their artistic practice and professional networking.
Wim Na Benard and Céleste Desplanche, 3rd-year graduates, are the recipients of the 'bourses d’accompagnement' (support scholarships). They will each receive €5,000 annually for two years to purchase supplies and materials, or rent spaces and equipment, to more serenely prepare for their final studies.
The scholarship recipients were selected based on artistic and social criteria by an educational committee comprising representatives from the Beaux-Arts de Paris and the diploma juries.
Previous edition laureates include Isadora Soares-Belletti, Raphaël Maman, Hajar Satari, and Séquoia Scavullo (2022); Ladji Diaby, Armand Koestinger, Elise Nguyen-Quoc, and Loïs Szymczak (2023); Océane-Maria Adjovi, Anna de Castro Barbosa, Judith Frament, and Alexandre Yang (2024); and Sila Candasayar, Vincent Van der Donk, Valeriia Vertii, and Ismaël Wagué (2025).
