If you're a fan of street art, there's plenty to do in and around Paris! Like many other French and European cities, the City of Light has become a playground for many French and international urban artists. While certain districts of the capital are particularly popular, such as the 13th arrondissement, several Parisian venues now regularly devote exhibitions to these artists, such as the Itinerrance and Mathgoth galleries, as well as Spot 13.
Additionally, exhibitions and other events dedicated to street-originated art are now plentiful in Paris, and also across the Île-de-France region. With a busy cultural calendar, here’s a look at some of the current and upcoming urban art events. We’ve selected five must-see showcases this spring, including an exhibition by Jef Aérosol, which blends urban art with music. This is definitely an event not to be missed in the 13th arrondissement right now.
While the Nature Forte Gallery invites around fifty artists to participate in the second edition of its exhibition 'Street Nature Forte', the Artistik Rezo Gallery showcases Lucid Dream by Dawal and his surrealist creations.
For a different location and another event, there's a group exhibition centered around the subway map. And finally, let's not forget the 10th anniversary of the International Urban Art Fair at the Carreau du Temple.
