Experience Paris’s vibrant autumn season celebrating the pioneers of impressionist, modern and contemporary art. A remarkable selection of early 20th-century masterpieces takes center stage, reflecting the spirit of European avant-gardes. The season also pays tribute to leading figures from Matisse to Klein, with his monumental California (IKB 71) and a rare Femme debout by Giacometti among the highlights. Discover outstanding works from the Italian artistic landscape, from Boetti’s conceptual embroideries to Kounellis’s poetic minimalism.
You can also discover a monumental transformation of Christie’s Paris façade by artist Stéphane Thidet, on view until January 2026.
