Mythology tells us that Pygmalion had created a sculpture so beautiful that he fell irrevocably in love with it. And when you see the works of certain artists, exhibited in Paris or in the Ile-de-France region, you can understand: these sculptors have a crazy talent! These works seem to be about to move, so much the features are realistic.
In short, we love sculpture exhibitions. And we love even more the museums, galleries and institutions of Paris and the Ile-de-France region, which put the spotlight on exceptional sculptors, through constantly renewed exhibitions.
To know which sculpture exhibitions to see in Paris at the moment, just have a look at our selection below!
