Leandro Erlich

2 June 2026 6 September 2026

Do you believe what you see? After captivating millions of visitors in Tokyo, Miami, and Milan, an exhibition dedicated to Leandro Erlich arrives for the first time in France at the Grand Palais. From one work to another, perspectives shift, architectures are disrupted, and reality transforms before your eyes.

Known for his spectacular installations in public spaces, Leandro Erlich explores the mechanisms of perception. At the intersection of installation, sculpture, and architecture, his immersive works - conceived at a human scale - take the form of dispositifs activated by the viewer's presence. By moving through and observing, each visitor becomes part of the experience. 

The artist draws on techniques borrowed from illusionism and trompe-l'œil: mirrors, appearances, shifts in scale, and perspective effects. Using elements from everyday life, he creates situations that unsettle reference points and transform our relationship to space. 

Conceived in collaboration with curator Fabrice Bousteau, the exhibition unfolds as a progressive journey composed of fourteen monumental and iconic installations: levitating boats, weightless clouds, modernist architectures transformed into infinite labyrinths, as well as a Haussmann-style building tipped onto its side that visitors can climb. 

Several installations, specially conceived for this retrospective, play with the inversion of perspective. What is perceived from the outside is transformed once inside. Viewpoints shift, and points of reference become unstable. Punctuated with artistic, literary, and architectural references, the exhibition also traces the artist's trajectory and questions the way we perceive reality.

Hilma af Klint

6 May 2026 30 August 2026

Her work upended the chronology of modern art. For the first time in France, discover the visionary world of Hilma af Klint (1862-1944), a pioneer of abstraction long kept in the shadows. From her large-scale compositions to her secret avant-garde works, her art blends color, form, and symbolism with captivating audacity.

The Grand Palais and the Centre Pompidou present her major work: the Paintings for the Temple (1906-1915), including the monumental series The Ten Largest. The exhibition also highlights the multiple sources of her inspiration - esotericism, folk art, scientific culture - and examines the long-overlooked role of women in the history of modern art. 

This first monographic exhibition in France also reveals an extraordinary story. Hilma af Klint had chosen to keep her abstract works hidden, having them sealed for twenty years after her death. It was not until 1986, with the exhibition The Spiritual in Art in Los Angeles, that her work was finally revealed to the public. 

A rare opportunity to discover an artist who, ahead of her time, transcends the boundaries between art, science, and spirituality.

Gardens of the enlightenment, 1750-1800

5 May 2026 27 September 2026

In spring 2026, at the Grand Trianon, the exhibition "Gardens of the Enlightenment, 1750-1800" offers a unique insight into landscape gardens in the 18th century. The exhibition tour brings together almost 160 works, including paintings, drawings, furniture, architectural plans, and costumes, spectacularly presented to showcase the birth of an art of landscape freed from the rules of the French formal garden and celebrating irregularity, fantasy and a philosophical evocation of nature. With close reference to the gardens commissioned by Marie-Antoinette at the Petit Trianon, the exhibition offers a sensitive rereading of iconic sites which visitors can then discover for themselves, such as the Belvedere, the Temple of Love and the Queen's Hamlet.
