Sade Prize

The prix Sade is a French literary prize created in 2001, sometimes called the Sade Prize in English, as a homage to the marquis de Sade.

History

Founded by Lionel Aracil and Frédéric Beigbeder, it is awarded by a jury as a "meeting of authors, publishers and other artists for the celebration of contemporary libertinism", the Sade prize is awarded each year at the end of September in honor of the "singular author and honest man, according to the definition of his century. An authentic liberal who will have succeeded, beyond the vicissitudes of the Revolution and the hold of the moral order, to undo the shackles of literature as well as those of politics."

The winner receives work from a contemporary artist, including in recent years Éric Madeleine, Nobuyoshi Araki, Alberto Sorbelli, Fabrice Hybert, and Jean-Paul Gaultier.
