Sans has imagined new economical strategies for the managing of artistic projects, involving brands for the first time in such art institutions.
In 6 years, the Palais de Tokyo has welcomed more than 1 million visitors. It was the pioneer of a movement of reconciliation between the City of Light and contemporary art. It has been emulated as a model and for its programming well beyond the frontiers of France, both among specialists, art-lovers, and the wide public.

Le Méridien (2006–2013)
From 2006 to 2013, Jérôme Sans was Global Cultural Curator for Le Méridien, in the high-end hospitality industry.
Gathering a community (LM100) of interdisciplinary creators/ambassadors (artists, architects, chefs, filmmakers, photographers, perfumes designers... each of them recognized in its field for its innovation), Sans reinvented the vocabulary of the company, around the three words "Chic, Culture and Discovery," placing it as a contemporary and unique hospitality group, engaged in today's culture.
Sans appropriated all areas of life and the most everyday gestures, turning them into "moments" dedicated to a set of sensual and creative experiences; from the olfactory identity of the brand, to its original soundtrack, through the breakfast signature and a creative wine menu or the in situ creation of works of art in the hotels. He also introduced the establishment of magnetic collector cards made by artists, not only giving room access but also the opportunity to discover for free, curated creative cultural institutions of the cities in which the Méridien's hotels are based worldwide.
"River Movie", Rives de Saône (2010–2014)
Since 2010, Sans has been appointed as artistic Director of the 50 km reorganization of the Lyon docks around the Saône River, an important program of permanent art in public space in Europe.
More than ten international artists (Tadashi Kawamata, Jean-Michel Othoniel, Didier Faustino, Lang-Baumann, Elmgreen & Dragset, Le Gentil Garçon, Erik Samakh, Pascale Marthine Tayou, Meshac Gaba) have created site-specific works that will be installed permanently on the docks, contributing to the artistic highlight of the City of Lyon. The program has been created through a unique dialogue between architects, landscape architects and artists. The first phase of the program was completed in September 2013 as more than 17 km featuring a dozen works was implemented in situ. The next phases was to be executed in 2014 and 2015.
Grand Paris Express (2015-2017)
Jérôme Sans has recently been appointed as the artistic co-director of the Grand Paris Express together with José-Manuel Gonçalvès by the Société du Grand Paris. This future metropolitan "super underground" will extend over a length of 200 km and will include 68 stations conceived by different architects and designers. Within an integrated approach to the localities/territories and with the aim to accompany the transformation phase, the artistic and cultural direction will contribute together with the creators, designers, architects and the engineers already engaged for the construction of the new underground to the creation of a metropolitan artistic heritage.
Polygone Riviera, Cagnes-sur-Mer (2015–)
From 2015, Sans has been artistic director of the art program of Polygone Riviera (Cagnes-sur-Mer, France),[16] designed by the Unibail-Rodamco group and Socri. It is the first open-air shopping centre in France and is also a cultural venue that focuses strongly on contemporary art, with eleven works by world-renowned artists placed on display at the centre (Ben, Céleste Boursier-Mougenot, Daniel Buren, César, Antony Gormley, Tim Noble & Sue Webster, Jean-Michel Othoniel, Pablo Reinoso, Pascale Marthine Tayou and Wang Du).[17]
During the summer 2016, a number of works by Joan Miró were displayed at the heart of the shopping centre, thanks to a partnership with the Maeght Foundation located nearby.[18]
Contemporary art venue led by Emerige, Ile Seguin, Boulogne, Paris
Led by the Emerige group, a new artistic and cultural project consisting of a place for contemporary art, a multiplex cinema and a hotel focusing on contemporary creation is currently being developed for the upstream tip of Seguin Island, which will benefit from one of the largest cultural concentrations in Europe. Jérôme Sans has been appointed artistic director for the prefiguration of the future contemporary art venue, designed by Catalan architects RCR Arquitectes, winners of the prestigious Pritzker Prize 2017. The venue, which will play a major role in this new cultural, social and economic dynamic, will embody within this exceptional island site the regeneration of the place of art as an inspiring space open to the world, in the image of today's creativity.
L'Officiel Art (2012–2013)
In 2012–13, Jérôme Sans was creative director and editor in chief of the quarterly art magazine "L’Officiel Art", published by the Editions Jalou (Paris). By joining Les Editions Jalou to direct l’Officiel Art, he bet on a new generation of art magazines in which art and artists narrate and encounter an interwoven world with fashion, style and all contemporary creative expressions. ("If art is a way of life, L’Officiel Art is its magazine"). The magazine aims to place artists at the centre of this cross-cultural debate. Sans managed the first eight issues of the magazine. Eight artists have been invited to create a special cover: Daniel Buren, Farhad Moshiri, Bertrand Lavier, Yan Pei-Ming, Sterling Ruby, Marina Abramovic & Terence Koh, Loris Gréaud et Youssef Nabil.
Lago/Algo, Mexico City (2022)
LagoAlgo is a private initiative that opened in February 2022. Supported by CMR - operator of the Del Lago restaurant - in partnership with OMR as the space's cultural arm, ALGO in collaboration with Jérôme Sans as Artistic Director.
LagoAlgo is a hybrid initiative where art and culture in general are at the forefront of the beating heart of this adventure. An open platform of dialogue and exchanges to look at, question, and potentially reinvent the world; a world in which we are definitely connected to nature, concerned with our shared future and its sustainability. A place to live, where art and life are unified. LagoAlgo is not a fixed model, but in permanent flux, like a snowball it will mutate and change through time, regularly adding new usages, forms of projects, or include various new actors or collaborations. LagoAlgo is, by definition, a new space for living and sharing.
