Le Petit Palais, Musee des Beaux-Arts de la Ville de Paris

To discover or rediscover during summer…

In an area completely renovated, combining modernity and the 1900 spirit, daylight highlights the collections.

You will go back in time, from the 1900 art to Ancient Greece and Rome, and understand how great moments in the history of Western art combine with the technical and artistic innovations, to produce masterpieces.

In this new place of art, creativity and conviviality, paintings, sculptures and art objects testify.

You can also enjoy Spain, from the 5th of July until the 31th of August, with the exhibition “Flamenco, avant-garde and popular culture”.

You will then certainly enjoy the charm of the interior garden with its pools lined with mosaics, its colonnades and its coffee shop.

L'Hotel Biron, Rodin's museum

A green oasis for major works...

At the Hotel Biron, the visitor can admire, in a permanent move between the rooms and the garden, some of Auguste Rodin (1840-1917) magnificent masterpieces.
In the garden, as at the beginning of the century, some ancient statues, purchased by Rodin, mingle and confront the works of the sculptor - Adam, Eve, Orpheus, Muse Whistler, Three Shades, both Cariatides …

Here also, a cafe-restaurant welcomes you in a rare décor.

Let’s this great artist talk:

"The main point is to be moved, to love, to hope, to live. To be a man before being an artist! Everything is fine for the artist because in all beings and in all things, his penetrating gaze discovers the character, ie the inner truth reflected in the form. And the truth is beauty. Be nature your unique goddess. Have in it an absolute faith. Art only begins with the inner truth. "

Vlaminck - Un instinct Fauve

Musée du Luxembourg
From February, the 20th Until July, the 20th, 2008

This exhibition brings together works of the period 1900-1915, from Maurice de Vlaminck’s (1876-1958) earliest known paintings, in which he already asserted his characteristic violence, down to the works produced at the beginning of the First World War, which reflect his contemporary research on the rendering of space.
An overview of Vlaminck’s production at that time reveals the key part he played in the renewal of painting which started in the early 20th century, and the inventiveness of the research he undertook with Derain.

Marie-Antoinette

Marie-Antoinette

When she was born in 1755, nothing led Marie-Antoinette to reign in France, but the hazards of European politics decided otherwise. The small Archduchess of Austria married the heir to the crown of France on May 16, 1770…

The figure of Marie-Antoinette has always been subject to many an interpretation: the "Austrian" hungry of expensive pleasures, a "victim" of the etiquette of Versailles, fanatic of macaroons…

By bringing together an outstanding collection of over 300 works (paintings, sculptures, objets d'art…) from across Europe, the exhibition sheds light on the personality and destiny of one of the last queens of France, from the Court of Austria, in Schönbrunn, to the Conciergerie, in Paris.

By Séverine Quoniam and Yves Pinard
Editions Glénat/Musée d'Orsay

Séverine Quoniam graduated from Law school, University of Assas in Paris and from the famous European art school the "Ecole du Louvre" in Paris.
In 2001, she joined "Esprit de France", a company specialized in hotel management which owns several hotels in Paris.
During the four years she passed at the Louvre Museum, she became a great friend of Yves Pinard, the Chef cook of the restaurant "Le Grand Louvre" located under the central glass pyramid int he courtyard of the museum.
In 2003, they decided to write a book on their experience (example of mixing art and cooking) at the Louvre Museum. This adventure led to a first real success "Cuisine et Peinture au Louvre" (Cooking and Painting at the Louvre - printed in 2004). They decided to pursue this adventure and wrote a second book titled "Cuisine et Peinture au Musée d'Orsay" (Cooking and Painting at the Orsay Museum) - September 2007.
Using the same "recipe", 45 paintings are replaced in their historic and artistic context, the Chef, Yves Pinard takes the essence and inspiration to translate the paintings into gastronomic dishes inspired from recipes from the XIXth century adapted to today's taste.
