Montrouge Fair 2026: The Contemporary Art Exhibition Showcasing the Next Generation of Talents

This winter, it makes its return, much to our delight. The Salon de Montrouge remains one of the most anticipated annual events in contemporary art across Île-de-France. Celebrating its 69th edition, it will be held this year from February 13 to March 1, 2026, at the Beffroi de Montrouge. In this latest edition, the salon aims to spotlight emerging artists, offering the public a glimpse of the talents of tomorrow.

More than ever dedicated to supporting artists, this fair immerses us in the diverse worlds of emerging talent — those artists destined to grace magazine covers and fill museum halls in the years to come. Photography, design, painting, sculpture, performances, installations, video… the medium doesn't matter as long as talent and creativity shine through. This year, 40 artists are showcased at the 2026 edition of Montrouge Art Fair, offering a fresh perspective on contemporary art that you might have never seen before.

This art fair reflects the contemporary scene of the moment. We discover artists with very different profiles... And visitors just as diverse! Professionals, collectors, art lovers and the simply curious are all welcome at this free event.

The selected artists come from all across France... but not only! This year, we also discover creators from Belgium, Italy, Iran, Sri Lanka, Egypt, Morocco, Canada, India, and Uruguay. At the Montrouge fair, art knows no borders—and neither does current events. Through the works of these emerging talents, we see recurring themes such as identity, ecology, equality and gender parity, and family dynamics... Topics that resonate with and challenge us all.

While the full program for this year’s edition has yet to be announced, expectations are high that, just like last year, the Montrouge Art Fair will take over the city. Visitors can look forward to public art installations throughout the streets, engaging talks and readings at the city’s media library, and workshops hosted at the Colucci space...

Sculpture, photography, drawing and video- here,art is on display in all its forms for our enjoyment. Shall we take a trip to the Beffroi de Montrouge?
