The 70 artists transforming the Piscine Molitor
In July 2024, the Piscine Molitor in Paris reinvented itself by hosting the second edition. 70 artists transformed the cabins of the indoor pool into veritable works of urban art.
International artistic curation
After the success of the first edition in 2018, Piscine Molitor returns with a new collection resolutely turned towards the international. 70 artists from the four corners of the globe take over the cabins lining the indoor pool, once used by swimmers to change. Now, these spaces are transformed into a gigantic ephemeral museum, each cabin reflecting the unique universe of the artist who reinvented it.
Among the artists selected are emblematic names in contemporary urban art, such as Falko (Africa), Eddie Colla (USA), Kenji Chai (Malaysia), David de la Mano (Spain), and French talents such as Tim Zdey and Lady M. This year’s edition stands out for its diversity, offering a rich and varied panorama of global contemporary art.
An artistic journey to the heart of Molitor
Visitors will have the opportunity to discover these ephemeral works on artistic walks through the site. This immersive exhibition, combining art, history and architecture, allows visitors to rediscover the Piscine Molitor from a totally new angle. The experience will be open to the public from October 2024, during the European Heritage Days. Then, throughout the year, there will be paying guided tours on Saturdays and free self-guided tours on Wednesdays at 6pm.
An event not to be missed
In parallel with this exhibition, an exclusive and ephemeral exhibition will be held from September to November 2024 at Molitor. It will be possible to admire and acquire sketches, canvases and drawings by the participating artists. This event offers a unique opportunity to acquire works by these renowned artists, while discovering Molitor’s fascinating history.
For art lovers and the curious, this 2024 edition is an invitation to explore contemporary urban art. All in an exceptional setting, transforming a historic site into a veritable open-air gallery.
