Featured Events in Paris in October, 2025 (May Updated)

Asia Now Paris Asian Art Fair returns to Monnaie de Paris during Paris art week October 17–20 to celebrate its tenth edition. More than an art fair, Asia Now is both a curated platform with a selection of international galleries presenting artists from across Asia and its diaspora, and an ambitious public program curated by guest curators featuring commissioned site-specific installations, performances, conversations and artist workshops.

Held in the heart of the French capital, within the Grand Palais, it builds bridges with France’s cultural industries, creating an iconic arts event that radiates throughout the city and integrates into its unique cultural ecosystem.

John Singer Sargent (Florence, 1856 – London, 1925), along with James McNeill Whistler, was the most famous American artist of his generation and certainly one of the greatest painters of the 19th and early 20th century. Revered in the United States (his Portrait of Madame X is regarded as the Mona Lisa of the American art collection conserved by the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York), he is also famous in the United Kingdom, where he spent most of his career. In France, however, his name and work remain largely unknown, a situation that the exhibition at the Musée d'Orsay in fall 2025 hopes to change.

At the invitation of the Musée national Picasso-Paris, Argentine artist Guillermo Kuitca (b. 1961) has created a site-specific work in the chapel of the Hôtel Salé. Since his intervention at the Venice Biennale in 2007, Kuitca has developed a new language, echoing the architecture, which the artist calls ‘cubistoid painting’, in which a set of intersecting lines, like so many folds in the plane, is deployed directly on the walls, forming a new pictorial space.

The exhibition traces the extraordinary life of this Italian artist, a Russian prince by birth and Parisian by adoption, who also had a brilliant career in the United States. A highly talented portraitist, he was much sought-after by a cosmopolitan elite, celebrities, the Parisian smart set and the first American film stars. His life was marked by decisive encounters and friendships with men of letters, Tolstoy in Russia and George Bernard Shaw in Paris, with whom he shared a vegetarian lifestyle, somewhat unusual for the era. In addition to the portraits that made his name, the exhibition will be highlighting his animal sculptures along with his astonishing work on behalf of animal rights, of which he was an ardent advocate well ahead of his time.

Sting Paris is set to captivate audiences at the renowned AccorArena in Paris on October 9, 2025, at 20:00. This highly anticipated event promises an unforgettable evening as the legendary artist Sting graces the stage with his timeless hits and mesmerizing performance. Known for his distinctive voice and eclectic musical style, Sting's concert in Paris is a must-attend for music enthusiasts. With tickets priced at 68 EUR, attendees will experience an intimate yet electrifying atmosphere in one of Paris's premier venues. The AccorArena, located in the heart of Paris, offers state-of-the-art facilities and exceptional acoustics, ensuring a memorable experience for all. This event is expected to draw a diverse crowd, celebrating Sting's illustrious career and his contributions to the music industry. Don't miss the chance to witness this iconic performance in the City of Light.

The Musée national Picasso-Paris collection is the fruit of an extraordinary history, made possible by the dation procedure - today it is the largest public collection of works by Picasso, the "Picassos of Picasso". Coming from the artist's studios, this collection gives us a better grasp of the aesthetic explorations of a Picasso who was by turns disconcerting, plural, contradictory, reflexive, gestural and conceptual, an aesthete and a committed activist, a tinkerer and a poet. Is he symbolist, cubist, classical, surrealist or simply figurative and political?

From January 30, 2025,throughJanuary 4, 2026, the Musée Yves Saint Laurent Marrakech invites you to experienceYves Saint Laurent: The Hamish Bowles Collection, fifty-three odes to elegance, brought to life through an outstanding loan that will enthral visitors.

Gaza is home to a wealth of archaeological sites from all periods that are now in peril. The IMA is therefore offering an exceptional collection in more ways than one, made up of highly valuable pieces that the vagaries of history have saved from disaster and which reveal the depth of its history, a priceless treasure whose complexity is reflected in this exhibition. Since 2007, the Geneva Museum of Art and History (MAH) has become the museum-refuge for an archaeological collection of nearly 529 works belonging to the Palestinian National Authority and which have never been able to return to Gaza: these amphorae, statuettes, funerary steles, oil lamps, figurines, mosaics, etc., dating from the Bronze Age to the Ottoman era, form a collection that has become a reference in light of the recent destruction.

Paul Poiret, the legendary French designer who led the revolution, opened the prototype of modern fashion in the 20th century with his mysterious design elements that advocated oriental aesthetics, and once created the amazing "Oriental style clothing". As a fantasy master in the fashion industry and an aesthetic dictator who is regarded as the "King of Fashion", Paul is also the first designer to establish a perfume company. His talent extends to interior design and he has become the ancestor of the fusion of fashion and lifestyle. In 2025, the Museum of Decorative Arts in Paris will launch a special exhibition to commemorate the figure of this legendary master who ignited the fashion revolution with the flowing clothing silhouette and colorful colors. The exhibition content will focus on Paul Poiret's fashion design, decorative art, and perfumery, and then go deep into topics such as party style and food taste, recreating the dreamlike fashion scene in the early 20th century and remembering the master together.

The shortlist for this year’s Prix Marcel Duchamp, announced by the Association for the International Diffusion of French Art (ADIAF) is: Bianca Bondi (born 1986 in Johannesburg, South Africa. Lives and works in Paris); Eva Nielsen (born 1983 in Les Lilas, France. Lives and works in Paris); Lionel Sabatté (born 1975 in Toulouse, France. Lives and works in Paris and Los Angeles); and Xie Lei (born 1983 in Huainan, China. Lives and works in Paris). Endowed with €90,000, the Prix Marcel Duchamp is the most prestigious contemporary art prize in France. It is awarded every year by the ADIAF to recognise contemporary art production by artists who are French or who live in the country. The prize is followed by an exhibition of the shortlisted artists. This year, for the first time since the creation of the prize in 2000, the exhibition will not be held at the Centre Pompidou, which will be closed for renovation. Instead, the exhibition will take place at the Musée d’Art Moderne de Paris from 26 September 2025 through 22 February 2026. The Musée d’Art Moderne de Paris is set to host the exhibitions of the Marcel Duchamp Prize until 2029.

The project, titled DALY, standing for Dessiner Avec Les Yeux (Drawing with my Eyes), is implemented with the help of an eye tracker (an oculometric procedure that highlights eye activity, the visual path, its fixation points and movements). So the eye rather than the hand becomes the tool. For the last thirty or so years, the artist has collaborated with numerous laboratories in creation of these works, including at the Louvre, the Centre Pompidou, the MUDAM in Luxembourg, the Zentrum Paul Klee in Berne, the Dadu Museum in Beijing, the Nouveau Musée National in Monaco and the Centre d’Art Verrier (CIAV) in Meisenthal. Michel Paysant focuses in particular on interpretation of artistic heritage, revisiting art history, “looking at” works through the filter of his own creation. In 2022, he was overcome by a desire to draw Claude Monet’s Water Lilies with his eyes. Initially, perhaps, because of the paradoxical nature of such an ambition: wanting to draw huge paintings characterised by their scope, their lack of beginning and end, regarded as one of the birth certificates in the west for a decentred, “all-over” form of painting, where no one part of the painting holds primacy over any other.

Guillaume Bottazzi a réalisé un tableau fruité en face du parc Montsouris. Il est visible de l’extérieur, au 34-36 avenue Reille, à Paris dans le 14ème arrondissement. Ce tableau apporte l’art ou on ne l’attend pas forcément et accompagne le quotidien des habitants. Cette huile sur toile de lin mesure 0,90m de haut par 1,80m de large. Elle a été conçue pour habiller l’entrée d’un bâtiment et dialogue avec les éléments qui l’entourent. L’artiste a déjà créé plus de 65 œuvres dans des espaces publics, comme un polyptique de 100m² à Paris La Défense, à Hong-Kong ou au Japon où il est l'auteur de la plus grande peinture du Pays, commandée par le Musée International d'Art Miyanomori. Ses œuvres font partie de collections muséales, notamment en Asie et aux Etats-Unis.

However, Berthe Weill’s name, which almost sank into oblivion for a while, is yet to blaze in the firmament of art dealers where Daniel-Henry Kahnweiler, Paul and Léonce Rosenberg, Ambroise Vollard and Paul Guillaume feature so prominently.The exhibition, organised by the Grey Art Museum in New York, the Museum of Fine Arts in Montreal and the Musée de l’Orangerie in Paris, aims to highlight a still little-known chapter in the history of modern art. At the beginning of the century, Berthe Weill committed herself to supporting artists under the slogan “Place aux jeunes” (Make way for the young), which was printed on her business cards. From Picasso (whose works she helped sell even before her gallery opened) to Modigliani (whose only solo exhibition in his lifetime she organised in 1917), she took part in the recognition of fauvism, regularly presenting exhibitions of works by the group of Gustave Moreau’s pupils gathered around Matisse. A little later on, she engaged with the cubists and School of Paris artists in battles for art and the emergence of its news forms as well as against conservatism and xenophobia. Despite the vicissitudes of fortune, her interest in young artists never wavered and she was fierce in her defence of very different figures, some of whom did not belong to any specific movement, giving them a chance by organising one or more exhibitions. She also promoted a number of women artists, without bias to gender or school, from Émilie Charmy, whose work she exhibited regularly from 1905 to 1933 and whom she described as a “friend of a lifetime”, to Jacqueline Marval, Hermine David and Suzanne Valadon, who was much in the public eye at the time. By 1951, the year she died, she had presented over three hundred artists at her gallery’s four successive addresses: 25 Rue Victor-Massé; 50 Rue Taitbout from 1917; 46 Rue Laffitte from 1920 to 1934, and finally 27 Rue Saint-Dominique. She organised hundreds of exhibitions until her gallery finally closed in 1940.

Fans of the renowned band Disturbed can expect a night filled with powerful performances and their signature hard-hitting sound. With ticket prices set at 75 EUR or 141 USD, this event is a must-attend for rock enthusiasts. Zenith, known for its exceptional acoustics and vibrant atmosphere, provides the perfect backdrop for Disturbed's intense and captivating show. As the band takes the stage, attendees will be treated to a dynamic setlist featuring both classic hits and new releases, ensuring a thrilling experience from start to finish.

Designed in partnership with the Musée Départemental Ernest Hébert in La Tronche (Isère), where it will be hosted in spring 2026, the exhibition will also be presented at the French Academy in Rome – Villa Medici in autumn 2026, where the exhibition’s curator Marie Robert spent a year in the context of a Villa Medici/ Musée d’Orsay cross-residency.

Orchestre : Hélios Chœur : Hélios Éphémère Direction : Matthieu Cabanes Programme : « Nocturne N°20, Valse en La mineur », Valse op.70 N°2, Valse N°15, Valse Op 34 N°2, Valse op 69 N°2 de Chopin / Requiem de Mozart Revivez le concert en hommage des funérailles de Chopin à l’église de la Madeleine en date du 30 octobre 1849. Chopin décida avec son entourage l'exécution du Requiem de Mozart lors de ses funérailles à l’église de la Madeleine. A onze heures du matin, le 30 octobre 1849, trois mille personnes emplissent l'église, toute drapée de noir. Pendant la montée du cercueil de la crypte, un orchestre joua la Marche funèbre de Chopin dans un arrangement de Napoléon Reber. Puis, l'organiste Louis Lefébure-Wély exécuta les Préludes en mi mineur et en si mineur. A l'issue de la cérémonie retentit le Requiem de Mozart, exécuté par l'orchestre et les choeurs de la Société de concerts du Conservatoire, sous la direction de Narcisse Girard, avec les solistes Pauline Viardot et Luigi Lablache. Dynamique et éclectique, l’orchestre Hélios s’est imposé depuis sa création en 2014. Son directeur artistique, Paul Savalle, favorise l’insertion professionnelle des jeunes musiciens par la pratique d’orchestre. Ainsi, de jeunes diplômés se mêlent aux musiciens d’orchestre, aux chefs et aux solistes expérimentés, dans des conditions de travail optimales. De la musique baroque à la musique contemporaine, les programmes sont variés, le répertoire est à la fois symphonique et choral, l’orchestre s’associant aux chœurs départementaux et régionaux. Grâce à la collaboration avec différents chefs, les musiciens abordent un répertoire très riche en élargissant leur palette d’interprétation. Ils sont tous issus des grands conservatoires français, certains appartenant à un orchestre national. Du quatuor à cordes à l’orchestre symphonique, en passant par l’ensemble de cuivres, l’orchestre élargit toujours son audience en modulant sa composition. La formation « cordes » se produit dans les plus prestigieuses églises de Paris, ce qui permet au public de découvrir un patrimoine architectural très riche. Sa formation à géométrie variable permet à l’orchestre Hélios d’aborder un répertoire très large avec une curiosité passionnée.
