Featured Events in Paris in October, 2024 (May Updated)

Skarstedt presents Andy Warhol: Who is Who?, an exhibition that delves into the myriad influences art history had on Warhol’s oeuvre. This exhibition traces his art historical appropriations throughout the 1970s and 1980s, featuring seminal examples of works from series such as Heads (After Picasso), The Last Supper, Mona Lisa, After de Chirico, and The Scream (After Edvard Munch). By holistically examining Warhol’s dialogues with art history, Who is Who? offers new insight into Warhol’s interests: his relationship to icons, both religious and secular; his collapsing of the boundaries between high and low; his interest in mass reproduction; and his perceived place within this grand lineage. The exhibition will be accompanied by a publication authored by Bernard Blistène.

Galerie Max Hetzler presents In the Altogether, Glenn Brown’s seventh solo exhibition with the gallery, and the second in the Paris space. Furthering the artist’s ongoing dialogue between antiquity and modernity, ingenuity and appropriation, the beautiful and the grotesque, Brown presents a new body of paintings of the human form, where dichotomous worlds collapse and collide.

Almine Rech Paris pressents its 12th exhibition with James Turrell, over 3 decades. A new light piece is on view from the artist's ongoing Glasses series, begun in 2004.

Joyful Sorrow, Chris Ofili's first solo presentation in France, comprises a new series of paintings, titled Othello—Shroud, which develops the artist’s relationship with William Shakespeare’s The Tragedy of Othello, the Moor of Venice (1603–04). This two-site exhibition is staged in partnership with Victoria Miro, which presents its other constitutive iteration, featuring a series of works on paper titled Othello—Reflection, in its Venice gallery from October 26 to December 14, 2024. These exhibitions are commemorated with a joint publication in collaboration with the scholar, poet, and writer Jason Allen-Paisant, available to preorder now.《欢乐的悲伤》是克里斯·奥菲利在法国的首次个人展览，包括一系列名为《奥赛罗——裹尸布》的新画作，这些画作发展了艺术家与威廉·莎士比亚的《威尼斯摩尔人奥赛罗的悲剧》（1603-04 年）的关系。这场跨两个场地的展览与维多利亚·米罗画廊合作举办，维多利亚·米罗画廊将于 2024 年 10 月 26 日至 12 月 14 日在其威尼斯画廊展出其另一项组成性展览，展出一系列名为《奥赛罗——反思》的纸上作品。为纪念这些展览，与学者、诗人和作家杰森·艾伦-佩桑特合作出版了一本联合出版物，现在可以预订。

Mitterrand gallery presents its very first exhibition at 95 rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré, History is round like the Earth by Chilean artist Roberto Matta. The exhibition brings together some thirty works - paintings, sculptures and drawings - covering each decade from the 1930s to the 1990s. An original text by American art historian Terri Geis will also be published for the occasion.

In autumn 2024, the Musée Rodin will showcase a little-known piece from its collections: Auguste Rodin’s Study for Balzac's Dressing Gown. Drawing on a series of sculptures from the museum’s collections, 19th-century garments from the Palais Galliera and never-before-shown archives from the Institut de France, the exhibition titled In·visible Bodies conducts an investigation into Rodin’s search for a body for Balzac, centred on his singular piece, Dressing Gown. This enquiry is a prelude to an exploration into the bodies – be they real, idealised, static or obscured – in 19th-century monumental statuary, which continue to populate our contemporary world today.

Perrotin is pleased to present a solo exhibition by Takashi Murakami at 2bis avenue Matignon. The gallery is part of the new association Matignon Saint-Honoré which gathers a selection of galleries from the 8th district.

The great Scandinavian troublemakers of contemporary art, Elmgreen & Dragset are invited to place their poetic sculptures in dialogue with the iconic Nave of Sculptures of the Musée d’Orsay. Their exhibitions are always situated at the crossroads of performance, space and sculpture. The presentation they have created specifically for the Musée d’Orsay will shake up the gaze of visitors, invited to dive into a museum turned upside down.

From October 15, 2024 to January 19, 2025, the Musée national Picasso-Paris presents a new temporary exhibition devoted to the American artist Jackson Pollock. First exhibition in France since 2008, it will focus on his early works, from 1934 to 1947. The exhibition "Jackson Pollock: The Early Years (1934-1947)" revisits the early career of Jackson Pollock (1912-1956), marked by the influence of regionalism and Mexican muralists, right up to his first drippings in 1947. This body of work, rarely exhibited for its own sake, bears witness to the diverse sources that nourished the young artist's research, crossing the influence of native American arts with that of the European avant-gardes, among which Pablo Picasso figures prominently. Compared to the Spanish painter and the great names of European painting by the critics, Pollock was quickly established as a true monument of American painting, and in so doing, isolated from the more complex networks of exchanges of influences that nourished his work during his New York years. The exhibition aims to present in detail these years, which were the laboratory for his work, by restoring the artistic and intellectual context from which both were nourished. The exhibition focuses on several key moments in the young Pollock's artistic and intellectual development during these years of experimentation. By calling on key figures in his artistic career (Charles Pollock, William Baziotes, Lee Krasner, André Masson, Pablo Picasso, Janet Sobel...), the exhibition highlights the intensity and singularity of his work in its various dimensions (painting and working with materials, printmaking, sculpture).

This exhibition marks the debut of Avvolgere la terra (To enfold the earth), 2024, a new limited edition produced in collaboration with Marian Goodman Gallery. Following Journal, a limited edition by Bruce Nauman published by the gallery in 2022, this new editioned work revisits our history, echoing the activities of Multiples, Inc, a pioneering art publishing company founded by Marian Goodman in the 1960s. Avvolgere la terra, consisting of 17 sculptures in terracotta with ochre and yellow pigments, refers in name to a primordial gesture, underscoring the intricate relationship between nature and humanity. The edition will be displayed with a selection of works on paper with the same title dating from 2010 and 2015, as well as in dialogue with Pressione (Pressure), 1977 a rarely seen large-scale immersive charcoal wall drawing which has been specially reproduced for this occasion.

The exhibition The Solo Globe, which will run from October 16, 2024 to January 26, 2025, looks back at the history, great heroes, explorations and special features of the Vendée Globe The Vendée Globe, held every four years since 1989, is a truly special event in world sailing. Dozens of competitors (33 in 2020) sail solo around the world in a monohull. No stops are allowed, nor any assistance: a long and arduous journey awaits the sailors. Many incredible stories, both glories and tragedies, have taken place during this epic journey. For this exhibition, the Oceanographic Museum has brought together nearly 300 special pieces and objects to tell and explain the story of this race, its pioneers and its challenges. Exhibits include sailing paraphernalia, models, clothing, artwork, books and archival documents, as well as audio-visual programmes and never-before-seen interviews with racers.

The French Revolution is a well-known event, but 1793-1794 is also an important year in our history. The Cannavaro Museum will host an exhibition from October 16, 2024 to February 16, 2025 that explores the history of this year. In the second year of the Republican calendar, the period from September 1793 to September 1794 was the year of revolution, the so-called Reign of Terror, a time of breaking with the past to create the new. Renowned worldwide, the Cannavaro's French Revolution Collection presents this contrasting legacy through 250 works, including paintings, sculptures, decorative arts, historical and memory objects, wallpapers, posters, furniture, etc. During this period, the capital was the birthplace of dreams and utopias, but also of collective fear and violence, a veritable fermentation of art, sensitivity and thought in times of crisis, works that reflect the life of Parisians at the time.

Repeating patterns, bright colors, cultural symbols, codes from comic books or video games: for more than 60 years, the Pop Art movement has been known, admired and imitated around the world. The Fondation Louis Vuitton takes us back to the origins of Pop Art with a sensational new exhibition. From October 16, 2024 to March 3, 2025, the Fondation Louis Vuitton will present "Forever Pop, Tom Wesselmann and...", an exhibition that presents one of the most important art movements since the 1960s. The Fondation Louis Vuitton brings together 150 paintings, installations and other works, including many works by Tom Wesselmann, the artist regarded as one of the founders of Pop Art. He is joined by the unforgettable Andy Warhol, as well as Jeff Koons, Marcel Duchamp, Derek Adams, Jasper Johns, Yayoi Kusama, Roy Lichtenstein, Lauren Halsey, Marjorie Strider, Marisol, Kurt Schwitters... All the richness of Pop Art is represented. The exhibition even expands its scope, presenting 70 works by international artists from different decades and movements. From Dadaism to today's art world, the Louis Vuitton Foundation has chosen Pop Art to explore it from its earliest artistic roots to its lasting influence today. The exhibition also pays tribute to the famous American painter Tom Wesselmann. Tom Wesselmann, heir to a line of abstract artists, was drawn to the visual modernity of the 1950s and created a world of his own by combining classical practices with new genres. The exhibition includes his most famous installations and series, as well as works by artists inspired by him.

As part of its restoration project, the Louvre Museum wants to shed light on Watteau's painting "Le Pierrot, dit le Gilles". An emblematic work of the painter, this painting was not discovered until it was too late. Discover all the secrets of this figure and the influence he had on different fields of art from the 18th century to the present day. For this reason, the Louvre Museum will be organizing an exhibition around this painting of Pierrot, entitled "The Renaissance of Watteau", from October 16, 2024 to February 3, 2025. Watteau's painting is of course the centre of the exhibition, but it is not the only masterpiece in the collection. The exhibition also features several works by Watteau and his contemporaries, as well as paintings, photographs and drawings from more recent times. The Louvre Museum exhibits a total of 65 works, including seven paintings by Watteau. Piero was born on the comedy stage. Like Harlequin, Piero is a recurring character in comedy. Watteau was fascinated by this world of theater from an early age and drew inspiration from live performances to paint several scenes and portraits. However, it is unknown when the painter created Piero. The origin of this painting remains a mystery to this day, adding to the legendary nature of this fascinating work.
