Tarsila do Amaral at the Musée du Luxembourg
Are you tired of the gray Parisian skies? Well, you're in luck because we're inviting you to take a journey. Let's head to Brazil, but not just any Brazil—it's the dreamy and colorful Brazil of Tarsila do Amaral. Through her paintings, the artist dances between reality and imagination, showcasing a country in the midst of modernization. From dreamlike gigantism to abstract geometry, we get swept away by these works that tell stories as much as they criticize. This is a unique retrospective in France that pays tribute to a talented artist who is still underrated.

After the summer at the Galerie du jour
It's quite simple, without Italy, there’s no Bernard Plossu. Far from his fabulous snapshots of California, the Galerie du jour invites us to discover another side of the photographer: his unconditional love for the Italian islands near Naples. Each of them plays the role of a promised land, becoming a muse and source of inspiration. On the walls, dozens of black and white prints spread out, showcasing landscapes that are as different as they are complementary: black sand beaches, volcanoes, cacti, turbulent seas, and mountain roads. A declaration of love that makes us want to shout: Oh, beautiful Italy!

Jackson Pollock at the Picasso Museum
The Picasso Museum looks back at the early years of the prolific career of Jackson Pollock, a period that is rarely presented to the public. It’s a great opportunity to showcase the influence of Native American arts on his work, as well as European avant-gardes, with Picasso being one of the key figures. The spectacular canvases, displayed in dialogue with the works of some of his contemporaries or inspirations, highlight the uniqueness and artistic genius of Pollock.
An enchanting exhibition, somewhat macabre, that leaves you with shapes and colors dancing in your head.View this post on Instagram

The Cartier Foundation elevates an artist who often stayed in the shadows of others to that of a tremendous icon, and it feels wonderful. Hanging from the ceiling, the creations play with light and our senses, immersing us in her iridescent world that blends tradition and abstraction.

Zombies at the Quai Branly Museum
To avoid experiencing a too intense transition right after Halloween and to keep the chills going a bit longer, head over to the Jacques Chirac Museum. Once again, this institution invites us on a journey to explore the path of the most famous of the undead: the zombie.

The Migrant Dance at the Museum of Art and History of Judaism
From Hamburg to Tel Aviv, from Dresden to Paris, set to the music of Béla Bartók, Marc Lavry, or Alexander Uriyah Boskovich, Paula Padani leaps, soars, and twirls. Through her dance, the choreographer transcends her experience of grief and exile by using movement as a force of life. An extraordinary power that the Museum of Art and History of Judaism invites us to contemplate through more than a hundred photographs of the dancer, each one lighter, more poetic, and dreamlike than the last. At .through borders and states of mind, we discover a dazzling figure of dance.
