Are you familiar with Scotty Ramon? Better known by his stage name, Kid Cudi, Scotty Ramon is making his way to Paris this winter for a brand-new, free exhibition. Titled "Echoes of the Past", this marks the artist's first solo show in the French capital. The Ruttkowski;68 gallery, located in the 3rd arrondissement, is proud to host this artistic event from January 30 to March 1, 2026.
For about a month, Kid Cudi fans will have the chance to explore the rapper’s work, showcased as a "bold visual collection." The Paris gallery highlights that the exhibition will also feature a sound piece, described as "an immersive extension of his visual and musical universe."
Although the Ohio-born rapper has been immersed in music for many years, Kid Cudi has only recently ventured into the world of painting. His first canvas, featuring a soothing shade of pink, was completed just over a year ago. Since then, the American artist has been creating a series of works that openly explore the darker, more conscious aspects of the psyche. In these pieces, Kid Cudi portrays Max, his alter ego. Through these paintings—some autobiographical, others hinting at a search for self-identity—Scotty Ramon reconnects with his childhood freedom of expression, recalling his dream as a young boy to become a cartoon illustrator.
From January 30 to March 1, 2026, several of her paintings will be on display at the Ruttkowski;68 Gallery. This exhibition is free to attend and features an original sound component that is both atmospheric and electric. Please note that this soundtrack will be broadcast throughout the entire Parisian gallery. An opening reception open to the public is scheduled for January 30 from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m.
