After a wonderfully packed year filled with fabulous exhibitions, the Parisian museums are not planning to stop there and will be back at it next year. And one thing's for sure, the programming is already looking extremely, extremely, extremely exciting! Here’s a little sneak peek of what awaits you starting in January at the capital’s greatest cultural institutions.


Suzanne Valadon at the Centre Pompidou

For one of its last big exhibitions before a long closure for renovations, the Centre Pompidou invites us to dive into the work of the painter Suzanne Valadon. A bold and emblematic artist, she stands out for her creation that defies the dominant artistic currents of her time. Indeed, this artist continuously painted reality at a time when cubism and abstract art were taking over, highlighting the nude and the feminine. An event you definitely shouldn't miss!

Louvre Couture at the Louvre Museum

Goodbye Mona Lisa, fashion is taking over the Louvre for the very first time! Throughout the seasons, many designers have chosen this iconic place for their runway shows. A few years ago, Yves Saint Laurent's creations were showcased in the heart of the Galerie Apollon, engaging in a dialogue with certain artworks. While the connection between fashion and the Louvre is not new, it's set to deepen even more with this exciting new fashion exhibition. For six months, garments and accessories will fill the museum's rooms, to our absolute delight!

Through the Gold at the quai Branly museum

To kick off the new year in style, the quai Branly museum is taking on the most precious of metals, gold. Through jewelry and clothing, the institution showcases the fascination this material has always held, as well as the ways humans have sought to master it to demonstrate their power. Centuries of fabrics and minted pieces will come together here, to dazzle us, and take us on a journey around the world, from Maghreb to Japan, passing through the Middle Eastern countries, India, and China.

the Atelier des Lumières would be focused on. The institution in the 11th arrondissement has just revealed its programming for 2025, and let me tell you it’s something special! The famous Parisian museum will offer us an exceptional and unprecedented immersion into the work of the "Catalan". And for a short program, we'll dive into the colorful paintings of Douanier Rousseau.

Disco at the Philharmonie de Paris

Attention nostalgics of the 1970s-1980s or those who would have loved to experience the artistic, cultural, and musical life of those years! Starting February 14, 2025, the Philharmonie de Paris continues its journey through musical genres and moves from a focus on metal to a Saturday Night Fever mode, offering a new exhibition dedicated to disco. And let me tell you, it’s going to be seriously colorful and festive! It's the perfect opportunity for ...

Musée d’Orsay is dedicating a massive exhibition to the art of street posters. This is an opportunity for the institution to showcase how this practice has, over the years, become an art form in its own right. A journey into late 19th century Paris that will immerse us in the heart of the streets of the Belle Époque, with their artistic and cultural vibrancy, their colors, at a time when mass culture was born.

Wes Anderson at the Cinemathèque

Agnès Varda, James Cameron… The French Cinemathèque keeps transporting us into the unique worlds of the greatest filmmakers. Now, it’s time to focus on another cinematic genius: Wes Anderson. This is a wonderful opportunity to dive into the filmmaker's one-of-a-kind universe: symmetrical visual compositions, ultra-vibrant color palettes, vintage decor, and characters with often eccentric personalities, all beautifully enhanced by u.a nostalgic soundtrack.

Grand Palais, in partnership with Pompidou, is hosting a massive exhibition dedicated to Niki de Saint-Phalle and Jean Tinguely, and their connections with Pontus Hultén, the former director of the modern art temple. This is a wonderful opportunity to showcase the extraordinary work of these three protagonists, all driven by the same desire to break the codes.

Bonus: Reopening of the Palais de la Découverte

This is not exactly an exhibition, but we couldn't finish this list without mentioning the highly (highly) anticipated reopening of the Palais de la Découverte. After 5 years of renovation work — it reminds us of something, hello Notre-Dame — this 1930s institution is getting ready to welcome the public again. And it fills us with joy! It's a great opportunity to dive back into the fascinating world of science, new technologies, and experiments. cute; experiences. On a hôte.
