LOCATION

The aristocratic character of the Place Saint Sulpice. The charming sidestreets of Saint-Germain-des-Prés, with their elegant casual feel, the romantic mood of the Luxembourg Gardens, the classical splendour of the Théâtre de l’Odéon, the poetry of a bench full of books just in front of Hôtel Récamier… and the consummate highly cultivated, laidback Left Bank art of living. From legendary cafés and brasserie terraces to more confidential addresses and little courtyards, from trendsetting stores to specialist bookshops and galleries, Parisian Way of Life is on your doorstep, ready to be observed and experienced on a stroll, or a walk. Just ask. We are here to help, guide you and introduce you to the many surprises the city has to offer.

Yves Saint Laurent: Transparencies

YVES SAINT LAURENT MUSEUM
From €7

The exhibition will focus on transparency as Yves Saint Laurent's preferred artistic expression. Some forty textile pieces will be presented. These will be accompanied by elements of the creative process: sketches, tracing patterns, photographs and accessories, as well as a series of drawings inspired by the paintings of Goya. Works by modern and contemporary artists echo Yves Saint Laurent's creations.

Attracted by the suggestive power of transparency, Yves Saint Laurent began experimenting with materials such as chiffon, lace and tulle in the 1960s. Like a leitmotif, transparency recurs regularly throughout his forty-year career, actively contributing to the silhouette of a powerful, liberated woman. Drawing on the power of materials, this new exhibition explores fashion and the couturier's vision in all its complexity: as close as possible to his relationship with the body and revisited nudity.

From February 9 to August 25, 2024.

The Egypt of the Pharaohs, From Cheops to Ramses II

ATELIER DES LUMIERES
From €11

L'Atelier des Lumières dedicates its new exhibition to the Egypt of the Pharaohs, featuring masterpieces from a civilization that spans three millennia and fascinates every generation. The immersive journey takes visitors along the Nile with its lush flora and fauna, and invites them to discover the daily life of ancient Egypt with its bas-reliefs, paintings and ancient papyri.

The digital exhibition reveals the remains of ancient Egypt as they appeared to French scientists during the Egyptian Campaign from 1798 to 1801, and as drawn by painter David Roberts. Visitors are immersed in this period of history, discovering the construction sites of the pyramids, the temples dedicated to multiple divinities, the mythical battles that punctuated the reigns of successive sovereigns, and immersing themselves in the Valley of the Kings and the Valley of the Queens.

From February 9, 2024 to January 5, 2025.

Balzac, Daumier and Parisians

LA MAISON DE BALZAC
Free admission (excluding exhibitions).

With this exhibition, the Maison de Balzac proposes to establish a correspondence between drawing and literature: a parallel between the work of the writer Honoré de Balzac (1799-1850) and that of the painter and caricaturist Honoré Daumier (1808-1879). The two men share a keen eye for their contemporaries, painting a vast panorama of society. Here and there, their observations reveal the shortcomings, the pettiness and the ridiculous, without indulgence, but with a deep concern for humanity.

The exhibition features some sixty of Daumier's engravings, as well as some of his paintings, offering an original dialogue with La Comédie humaine. To enrich and update these views of Parisians, the exhibition also features drawings by several contemporary caricaturists and illustrators.

November 22, 2023 to March 31, 2024

Running at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs from November 29, 2023 to April 28, 2024, the exhibition "Iris van Herpen. Sculpting the Senses" pays tribute to one of the most visionary fashion designers of her generation.

The Louis Vuitton Foundation

from 16€ onwards

The collection of the Fondation Louis Vuitton does not aim at the objectivity and exhaustiveness of a public collection. It is committed to sharing the emotions and questions provoked by certain works whose power to "break the rules" reinvents a relationship with the world. To do so, it is naturally organized around sensitive lines that draw four directions: Contemplative, Popist, Expressionist, Music and Sound.
