Viandalism: the exhibition bridging street art and contemporary art at the Mona Bismarck

The Mona Bismarck American Center in Paris is hosting an exhibition titled 'Viandalism' from May 7-8, 2026, bringing together 40 artists from graffiti and contemporary art backgrounds. The show features installations and site-specific interventions within the 1,000 m² private mansion, aiming to create a dialogue between the artworks and the venue's unique architecture and atmosphere.

The exhibition also serves as the launch of the VIANDALISM platform, a new art-leasing initiative founded by Jean-Christophe Filippini. The project's core philosophy is that artworks must be experienced in living spaces to fully exist, promoting a more direct and accessible model for circulating art outside traditional gallery or museum settings.
