The international press and public relations agency Close Encounters, named after the famous science fiction film, works primarily in the visual arts and cultural fields. Connoisseurs will of course have recognised South of France Sainte-Victoire mountain, dear to Cézanne, on the homepage!

Close Encounters mission is to create quality relations with the press and media, in an ethical and responsible spirit, in order to promote art projects and artists who have unique visions of our world. The agency works with institutions, galleries, artists, curators, festivals, fairs and networks, offering them a human and committed strategy and a ‘decentred’ point of view. In this way, we help to raise the profile and visibility of our clients, encourage exchanges and encounters, and foster new dynamics that respect everyone.
