Our 5 Favorite Gallery Exhibitions to See This Spring in Paris

Nos 5 expos coups de cœur à voir en galeries ce printemps à Paris

Paris is experiencing a vibrant gallery season this spring, marked by the arrival of major international players and the rediscovery of overlooked artists. Highlights include the opening of Singapore’s Cuturi Gallery at the Palais-Royal with a cross-disciplinary show on decadence, and the London-based Waddington Custot establishing a new space in Saint-Germain-des-Prés with an exhibition bridging Nabis masters and contemporary painters. Other notable shows include a first-ever public look at the surrealist collages of Roland Sig and a dialogue between neo-impressionism and contemporary art at Galerie Pavec.

These openings signal the continued strengthening of Paris as a global art hub, attracting established international galleries to set up permanent outposts in historic neighborhoods. By mixing historical movements like the Nabis or Surrealism with contemporary voices, these galleries are fostering a dialogue between art history and modern practice, while the debut of private archives like Roland Sig’s underscores the city's role in scholarly rediscovery and market expansion.
