Feminine Surrealism? at the Musée de Montmartre
A major movement from the 1920s to 1970s, Surrealism was not just dominated by male artists. From the iconic photographer Lee Miller to Claude Cahun, Grace Pailthorpe, and Franciska Clausen, many women expressed themselves through drawing, photography, sculpture, poetry, writing, and even cinema. The exhibition Feminine Surrealism? at the Musée de Montmartre showcases nearly 150 transgressive artworks, exploring the themes of metamorphosis., nature, femininities, or even dreams.

A photographic history of women in the 20th century at the Roger-Viollet Gallery
The history of women in the 20th century is one of their emancipation. From the right to vote to the right to emancipate themselves from the guardianship of their father or husband, the past hundred years have been synonymous with liberation for women. The latest exhibition at the Roger-Viollet Gallery pays tribute to these women, who are our mothers, grandmothers, and great-grandmothers, through over sixty contemporary prints.
