Featured Events in Paris in March, 2025 (July Updated)

Housed in the classic rotunda structure of the Paris Stock Exchange, the Pinault Museum presents Corps et âmes, a selection of about a hundred works from the Pinault Collection, exploring the representation of the body in contemporary art as a response to the huge panorama of paintings that surround the building's glass dome. The exhibition explores the meaning of the body in contemporary thought through works by about forty artists from the Pinault Collection. Freed from all constraints of mimesis, the body - whether photographed, sculpted, painted, photographed or drawn - constantly reinvents itself, thus giving art an essential organic quality that allows it to feel the pulse of the body and the soul, like an umbilical cord.

The Louvre’s Department of Near Eastern Antiquities is hosting ten major works from New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art, whose Department of Ancient Near Eastern Art is currently closed for renovation. The Louvre and The Met have created a unique dialogue between these two collections, which is displayed in the Louvre’s permanent galleries. These ‘special guest’ artworks from The Met, dating from between the late 4th millennium BC and the 5th century AD, show some remarkable connections with the Louvre’s collection. In some cases, a pair of objects has been reunited for the first time, while in others, pieces complement each other by virtue of specific historical features of their respective collections. Representing Central Asia, Syria, Iran and Mesopotamia, this dialogue between collections is (re)introducing visitors to these extraordinary, age-old works of art and the stories they tell.

The Musée national Picasso-Paris collection is the fruit of an extraordinary history, made possible by the dation procedure - today it is the largest public collection of works by Picasso, the "Picassos of Picasso". Coming from the artist's studios, this collection gives us a better grasp of the aesthetic explorations of a Picasso who was by turns disconcerting, plural, contradictory, reflexive, gestural and conceptual, an aesthete and a committed activist, a tinkerer and a poet. Is he symbolist, cubist, classical, surrealist or simply figurative and political?

At the invitation of the Musée national Picasso-Paris, Argentine artist Guillermo Kuitca (b. 1961) has created a site-specific work in the chapel of the Hôtel Salé. Since his intervention at the Venice Biennale in 2007, Kuitca has developed a new language, echoing the architecture, which the artist calls ‘cubistoid painting’, in which a set of intersecting lines, like so many folds in the plane, is deployed directly on the walls, forming a new pictorial space.

As a palace of French classical art, the Louvre will open its doors to fashion for the first time and hold its first fashion-themed exhibition in history in 2025, displaying the museum's art treasures alongside classic fashion works and works by young designers. The exhibition will display 65 classic fashions, 30 high-end accessories and dozens of works by contemporary young designers in a space of 9,000 square meters, engaging in dialogue with the art from the Byzantine to the Second French Empire period treasured by the Louvre. Hundreds of fashion works resonate with the historical style and cultural connotation of decorative art in an academic, moving and poetic way, illustrating the real close connection between fashion and decoration. Important exhibits include fashion designed by Karl Lagerfeld for Chanel and masterpieces by well-known fashion brands such as Yohji Yamamoto. At the same time, a special tribute is paid to Parisian fashion pioneer Ms. Marie-Louise Carven.

From January 30, 2025,throughJanuary 4, 2026, the Musée Yves Saint Laurent Marrakech invites you to experienceYves Saint Laurent: The Hamish Bowles Collection, fifty-three odes to elegance, brought to life through an outstanding loan that will enthral visitors.

When the mirror ball reflects thousands of stars, the Philharmonie de Paris is brewing a cross-century cultural carnival!

Starting from Valentine's Day 2025, the six-month-long "Disco, I'm coming out" special exhibition will take you stepping on colorful notes and return to the golden age of freedom and rebellion. Here, every pair of dancing shoes hides a story, and every melody is a declaration of cultural revolution.

The Jacquemart-Andre Museum hosts a retrospective of the works of Italian female painter Artemisia Gentileschi (1593-c. 1656), looking back on her fearless life and creative career and exploring her position in the history of 17th century painting.

A pioneer of Neo-Impressionism and a pillar of anarchist and libertarian circles, Maximilien Luce (1858-1941) marked his era with a profound artistic and political commitment. A painter of urban and rural landscapes and the human condition, he captured the social and industrial transformations of his time with a unique sensitivity. The first Parisian retrospective since 1983 dedicated to this major Neo-Impressionist painter, the exhibition is held just steps from where Luce resided from 1887 to 1900, on Rue Cortot. Rooted in the history of Montmartre and the contradictions of his time, the painter's work is highlighted in this exhibition, which aims to reaffirm his importance and introduce his often overlooked oeuvre to the general public. Besides the humanist character that made the man's heart beat and distinguished his entire oeuvre, landscape was the other dominant theme that animated his painting throughout his life. Luce captures light and color, revealing the beauty of urban and rural landscapes with a persistent social sensitivity. For the exhibition "Maximilien Luce, the Instinct for Landscape," the Musée de Montmartre has chosen to present his work through the prism of landscape, taking visitors on a retrospective journey between the two essential centers of his life: Paris and Rolleboise. Visitors are invited to follow the artist's wanderings from Montmartre, where he lived from 1887 to 1900, through the bustle of the Parisian streets, and through his travels from Saint-Tropez to the Pays-Noir of Charleroi, via the Netherlands, Normandy, and London.

The Musée d'Orsay's exhibition devoted to Norwegian artist Christian Krohg is the artist's first-ever retrospective outside Scandinavia, following several exhibitions in Oslo and Lillehammer in 2012, and Copenhagen in 2014. By highlighting Krohg's naturalistic and committed works, the museum offers a new perspective on Norwegian art of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

“Chaosmos” is an invitation to 12 artists to tell us about the cosmos and invent new ways of inhabiting the Earth. Welcome to Chaosmos, a world that deconstructs, in order to better reconstruct, in time and space, the place in the universe that we attribute to ourselves and the way in which we inhabit the world, the traces that we leave there, the links that we establish there. From this precariously balanced zone emerge the works of twelve contemporary artists, from several countries around the world: South Africa, Belgium, Canada, Spain, France, Guyana, Japan, Democratic Republic of Congo, Zambia. They evoke the relationship between our conception of the cosmos and our attitude towards the preservation of life on Earth.

Thanks to the cooperation of many important institutions, the exhibition "Tous Léger!" is on display at the Luxembourg Museum. The exhibition is curated based on the museum's existing collection, and the works of modern art pioneer Fernand Léger (1881-1955) are in dialogue with the works of European and American avant-garde artists from the 1960s to the present. The title of the exhibition has multiple meanings: on the one hand, it directly refers to Fernand Léger's name Léger, emphasizing his central position in the exhibition, while also implying the approachability and integration of art advocated by Léger and his new realism movement into daily life, suggesting a "light (Léger)" and unpretentious attitude.

From January 17 to June 30, 2025, the Galerie du Patrimoine, located in the boutique at 20, place Vendôme, in Paris, is hosting the exhibition “Nuances de Bleu par Van Cleef & Arpels”.

From the creation of the journal Présence Africaine to Revue Noire, "Paris Noir" traces the presence and influence of Black artists in France from the 1940s to the 2000s. The exhibition highlights 150 African and Afro-descendant artists, from Africa to the Americas, whose works have often never been shown in France. All contributed to a cosmopolitan Paris—a place of resistance and creativity—that fostered a wide variety of practices, from identity awareness to the search for transcultural artistic languages. Their impact is particularly significant in the redefinition of modernities and postmodernities.The exhibition explores half a century of struggles for emancipation, from African independence movements to the fall of apartheid, including battles against racism in France.
