When contemporary art invades Eastern Paris


Hoping to boost the circulation of contemporary art and to inspire a newfound energy in the burgeoning neighborhoods of Eastern Paris, the following seven contemporary art spaces teamed up together last spring: Café au lit, Cosmic Galerie, le Frac Ile-de-France/Le Plateau, La Générale, la Galerie Italienne, la Galerie Jocelyn Wolff and la Vitrine of l’Ecole Nationale Supérieure d’Arts de Paris-Cergy.

To celebrate this special collaboration, a simultaneous opening of all new shows is scheduled to take place four times a year, giving art seekers the chance to hop from one gallery to the next in a single night.

The next event is scheduled for Wednesday, September 13th from 6:00 to 10:00pm, and shall include a course through neighborhoods as lively and diverse as Belleville, Oberkampf, Mouzaïa and Buttes-Chaumont.

Both public (art centers, schools) and private (galleries), these seven art spaces invite you to discover the following new shows for the upcoming fall season:
Café au lit : fatal – fatale – fatal, solo exhibition by Gabriele Basch.
Cosmic Galerie : group show by the Kimberley Clark Collective, with Iris Van Dongen.
Le Frac Ile-de-France/Le Plateau : Practice zero tolerance, solo exhibition by Adel Abdessemed.
La Générale : Solo exhibition by Pier Francesco Lerose and Echappement, group exhibition

La Galerie Italienne : ZIG-ZAG, selection of the best Italian design of the last 10 years.
