Art Shopping: the rendezvous under the Carrousel du Louvre
It’s not every day that the prestigious Carrousel du Louvre is transformed into a contemporary art gallery. Twice a year, Art Shopping offers a showcase of the latest artistic trends in the underground galleries of the world’s most visited museum. This autumn’s edition, true to its reputation, is no exception.
Ever more pop, sunny or irreverent creations rub shoulders. Among the regulars, the headstrong Yannick Duhamel creates a sensation with his animated sound portraits made from vinyl records. His works immerse visitors in a captivating musical universe. The bewitching Angelina Maia, meanwhile, presents her busts in cardboard lace, delicate creations that fuse elegance and modernity.
A plethora of new talent on the market
Art Shopping is not only an essential meeting place for the contemporary art scene; it’s also a place of discovery. Every year, it brings promising new talents to the forefront of the art scene. Among them, Jérôme Hérard stands out with his shots of astronauts perched atop skyscrapers, inviting reflection on urbanity and space.
Who will be the last sensation of this edition? Will it be Wallace Woo, whose sea of dripping ink fascinates visitors? Or Victoria Villahoz, whose iodized landscapes have a deceptively retro feel? The choice is vast, and each artist brings his or her own unique touch to this dynamic event.
Art Shopping is much more than an exhibition. It’s a sensory experience, a journey through contemporary artistic trends that continues to attract an ever-growing audience.
