Rediscover the works of Jean Dubuffet at the Dubuffet Foundation

With its new exhibition Pulsions, the Dubuffet Foundation brings together over 150 works by the artist, highlighting his final years. The presentation kicks off in the 1970s when Jean Dubuffet is 70 years old and begins a brand new chapter of his creation. For ten years, he will produce nearly 1,500 paintings and 1,000 drawings, exploring unprecedented artistic paths, between figuration and non-figuration. This period showcases the freedom of his gesture and the constant boldness of Jean Dubuffet’s practice.

We're brunching Scandinavian style at Bønne

Created by the dynamic Turkish-Norwegian duo, Serdar and Malin, Bønne is the new Nordic café in the 18th that everyone is talking about. It’s a cozy spot tucked away on Rue Labat, boasting a carefully crafted drink menu, and most importantly, Norwegian pastries that are to die for. On the menu? The famous kardemombolles (sweet cardamom buns) or kannelbolles (cinnamon rolls), as well as a stunning cheesecake with brunost (Norwegian cheese) and blueberries that is absolutely divine… In short, it’s Oslo in Paris.
