Toulouse-Lautrec
Créateur d’icônes

Toulouse-Lautrec: Icon maker

Caumont – Centre d’Art

Until to 4 October 2026

Caumont Centre d’Art dedicates its summer exhibition to Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, a towering figure of the Parisian avant-garde. Through nearly a hundred works — paintings, lithographs and iconic posters — the entire dazzling world of fin-de-siècle Montmartre is brought to life before your eyes.

The exhibition reveals the genius of an artist who, better than anyone, knew how to transform his contemporaries into eternal icons: La Goulue, Jane Avril, Aristide Bruant… figures he elevated to the status of symbols of an era. From cabaret scenes and intimate portraits to groundbreaking posters, we discover a profoundly human gaze — tender and unflinching — cast upon Parisian life in all its diversity.

Brought to life through a spectacular immersive scenography and works on loan from major institutions such as the Musée d’Orsay and the Musée Carnavalet, this exhibition is a rare opportunity to understand why Toulouse-Lautrec’s art continues, more than a century after his death, to captivate us so completely.

Vasarely and Architecture. Project for a Revolution

Fondation Vasarely

12 June to 1 November 2026

To mark the 50th anniversary of the Vasarely Foundation, discover an exceptional exhibition dedicated to Victor Vasarely’s architectural vision. Project for a Revolution. Vasarely and Architecture reveals the origins of the Architectural Centre, the artist’s iconic building conceived as a true work of art integrated into the urban environment. Through prestigious loans from the Centre Pompidou, the FRAC Centre-Val de Loire and the Fernand Léger National Museum, the exhibition traces Vasarely’s pioneering ambition: to take art beyond museum walls and transform everyday living spaces.

Preparatory studies, scale models, rare documents and major artworks illustrate this artistic and architectural adventure, from the influence of the Bauhaus to the utopian projects of the Polychrome City of Happiness. The exhibition also highlights Vasarely’s exchanges with other leading figures of 20th-century art and architecture, including Yona Friedman, Carlos Raúl Villanueva, Mathias Goeritz and André Bloc.
