Nature Forte: the collective exhibition that brings together paintings, drawings, photographs and sculptures in Paris

If you live in the 10th arrondissement and you’re passionate about art, you’ve probably heard of the Nature Forte Gallery. Opened in March 2023 thanks to the drive of urban-exploration photography specialist Jonk, this artistic space has since staged a number of provocative exhibitions. The Nature Forte Gallery thus spotlights artists who reveal the power of nature through painting, sculpture, photography, drawing, or illustration.

After drawing attention to climate catastrophes with its "weather bombs", the small Paris gallery now announces a collective, multidisciplinary exhibition on the gallery's theme, simply titled "Nature Forte". On view from October 8 to 31, 2026, this new installation will showcase the work of about ten artists with diverse backgrounds.

Launched as an "annual event", this first exhibition on the theme of "strong nature" will thus present around sixty works created notably by the hyperrealist illustrator Karim Benchebra, the multimedia artist Sophie Boiral, the painter and draftsman Alexandre Dodela, the photographer Stanley Leroux, and the sculptor Virginie Devin.
