Exhibitions of the month :

Critical Mass "Antony Gormley's sculpture exhibition at the Musée Rodin", until March 23, 2024.

This exhibition stretches from the museum to the garden, with sixty human-sized sculptures installed in an astonishing layout.

Inspired by the work of Auguste Rodin, Antony Gormley has tested, innovated and sought new ways of expressing the body, bringing these unusual creations to life. In the various spaces of the museum, we discover sculptures installed opposite works by Rodin, suspended from the ceiling, leaning against walls...

Antony Gormley's bodies face each other, mix and sometimes clash, creating installations that are funny, fascinating or absurd. Exhibited alongside works by Rodin, they seem to question their counterparts: "a dialogue between the modern and the ancient develops".

Treasures of Notre Dame at the Musée du Louvre, until January 19, 2023.

Notre-Dame de Paris is back in action after the terrible fire of 2019. The Pont au Double has reopened, and the spire will soon be back at the top of the edifice - all advances in the major works, which bode well for a reopening on April 16, 2024. In the meantime, lovers of the cathedral will be able to enjoy an unmissable new exhibition, from October 18, 2023 to January 19, 2024, in the largest museum in Paris, the Musée du Louvre!

Oceans l'odyssée immersive at the Atelier des Lumières, until January 7, 2024.

This exhibition offers us an underwater escapade through the eye of Brian Skerry, renowned photographer for National Geographic. He has spent over 10,000 hours on the seabed over the past 40 years capturing aquatic life. The exhibition takes us in turn to tropical, temperate and polar seas, to meet multicolored fish hidden in the reefs, microscopic crustaceans, large predators... to discover marine fauna from every angle.
