Toulouse-Lautrec
Créateur d’icônes
Toulouse-Lautrec: Icon maker
Caumont – Centre d’Art
24 April to 4 October 2026 – Pre-sale now open
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.

Dialogues avec le losange
Quand l’op art rencontre l’art urbain contemporain
Dialogues with the Diamond
When op art meets contemporary urban art
Fondation Vasarely
31 October 2025 to 15 February 2026
Exhibition extended until 1 May 2026
To mark the 100th anniversary of the Renault diamond, the Vasarely Foundation presents the must-see exhibition in partnership with the Renault Fund for Art and Culture.
The diamond, an emblem for both Vasarely and Renault, serves as the focal point for an unprecedented artistic dialogue. The exhibition features three key figures from the optical and kinetic urban art scene: Arthur Dorval, Sébastien Préschoux, and Olivier Swiz.
These contemporary artists extend Vasarely’s legacy through geometric abstraction, taking over the Foundation and its exterior spaces. For the very first time, Victor Vasarely’s personal office is open to the public, transformed into an in situ creation studio.
Come and discover this exceptional encounter between the work of the master of op art and kinetic art, and contemporary urban creativity.
