Doors are open at Art Paris 2025. The fair makes its triumphant return to the newly renovated Grand Palais, solidifying its status as the premier spring event for modern and contemporary art. This 27th edition hosts 170 exhibitors from 25 countries, marking a significant increase from previous years and showcasing the fair’s expanding global reach.

Art Paris 2025 continues its tradition of blending regional charm with international flair. Approximately 60% of the exhibitors hail from France, while the remaining 40% represent galleries from around the world.

Notably, 36% of the participants are newcomers to the fair, underscoring Art Paris’s commitment to fresh perspectives and emerging talent. Esteemed galleries such as Mennour, Semiose, and Christian Berst join regular exhibitors like Continua, Lelong & Co. and Templon, enriching the fair’s dynamic landscape.

The 2025 edition delves into two compelling themes:

Immortal: A Focus on Figurative Painting in France

This segment presents a selection of thirty artists from exhibiting galleries and offers a nuanced analysis that considers historical contexts and intergenerational dialogues.

Out of Bounds
