But for such an anniversary, a simple exhibition is not enough. A real party is needed! The museum is organizing a Curieuse nocturne on Thursday, May 16, 2024, starting at 6:30pm.
For the duration of the evening, the Musée d'Orsay will be transformed into a performance space, hosting immersive artistic performances and musical moments, hosted by a variety of contemporary artists. These young creators draw inspiration from the artists exhibited in the museum's collections, creating an intergenerational dialogue that offers a fresh look at masterpieces we thought we knew by heart.
This Thursday evening, the Nave of the Musée d'Orsay welcomes several groups and artists. The mood will be set by the Ensemble /K/inêtikos dance and performance art troupe, but that's not all! Various artists have been invited for this exceptional cultural evening, giving us the opportunity to enjoy this not-to-be-missed institution in a different way.
Join the party and celebrate Impressionism at the Musée d'Orsay's Curieuse nocturne in May.
