The Casa de Velázquez
The Casa de Velázquez is a French public institution devoted to creative activities and research on the arts, languages and literature of the Iberian countries, Latin America and North Africa. This institution also welcomes artists, researchers, teachers and participates in artistic and academic exchanges between France and the aforementioned regions. Being at the same time a centre for research and artistic projects gives to the Casa de Velázquez a unique status among the five Écoles françaises à l'étranger. Since it was founded in 1928 by the Ministry of Higher Education and Research, this School has welcomed both artists -in a manner similar to La Villa Médicis in Rome - and researchers from the School for Higher Hispanic and Iberian Studies (EHEHI).
The École française d'Extrême-Orient (EFEO) is ceasing its activity on X (formerly Twitter). This decision is due to the editorial evolution of the platform which, by breaking with the European code of good practice against online disinformation, has become incompatible with the values of a French public institution of higher education and research. The EFEO, like a number of universities and higher education establishments, has therefore decided to no longer have an active account on the X network, a decision put into practice on 20 January 2025.
It is with great sadness that we learn of the death of Pierre-Sylvain Filliozat, which occurred in Paris on 28 December 2024.
Our thoughts are with his family and friends in Europe and India.
