Museums & Expositions

From renowned museums to lesser-known collections, there is something to suit every goût.

1920’s Paris Mode : Fashions of les Années Folles star
Following the blow of World War I, Paris underwent a period of rebirth. Women celebrated newfound liberty in both the way they carried and costumed themselves. These fashions born from the 20's, now on exhibit at the Musée Galliera, are timeless. Infuse your style with some of their extravagance.

Art, Chocolate and Taxidermy on Rue du Bac star
Currently at the Musée Maillol, Pascin´s exhibition showcases warm portraits shrouded in Impressionism and watercolor-washed pen and ink caricatures. Exiting the Paris Metro at Rue du Bac, stop along the way for decadent chocolates and browse the most bizarre shop in Paris, a menagerie of taxidermy.

Museums of the Jardin de Tuileries star
In order to appreciate the beauty of a moment, sometimes one must take a step outside the picture. The Jardin de Tuileries provides a panoramic retreat from the bustle of Paris. Inside its gates, the Musée de l´Orangerie is home to many impressionist masterpieces including Monet´s Grands Nymphéas.

The Rodin Museum star
A nicely researched and written article on a museum in Paris devoted to the works of Auguste Rodin.

Walt Disney at the Grand Palais star
The exhibit Il Etait Une Fois Walt Disney presents the different layers of artistic influence lying behind animation. Like peering through a kaleidoscope, a melange of film projections, storyboard sketches, paintings and models embellish the Grand Palais.
