You're good to go!
This Spilliaert exhibition – the first in France for nearly 40 years – takes us back to the years between 1900 and 1919, the most intense in Léon Spilliaert's career. See his most radical works, depicting the Belgian artist's infinite metaphysical questions and Flemish culture.
Spilliaert was inspired by the pictorial works of Odilon Redon and James Ensor, as well as the writings of Émile Verhaeren and Maurice Maeterlinck. While Symbolism was a huge part of his repertoire, he flirted with Expressionism via wild-eyed faces, and minimalism via sleek landscapes.
Many of his works are mystifying, and a few uncategorizable pieces will surprise you.
Spirited and masterful, bold, erotic, and unorthodox. All are words used to describe Beardsley’s highly personal style. Yet like many young artists who died too soon, Aubrey Beardsley (1872-1898) passed away aged 25, just as his fame was taking off.
Step into his world and explore the works that made him a leading name in the 1890s London scene, in the first monographic display in France to focus on this original creator.
Shimmering light, sun-dappled water, and of course: water lilies. This combo ticket is your key to unlock two of Paris's finest museums. The Musée d'Orsay's collection has works by Gauguin, Monet, Manet, Degas, Renoir, Cézanne, and Van Gogh, among others. The Musée de l'Orangerie is most famous for its massive Water Lilies, but also includes Cézanne, Matisse, Picasso, Rousseau, and more.
Situated in the stunning Beaux-Arts style Gare d'Orsay railway station, opposite the Tuileries Gardens, this building is a city landmark. This museum displays art from 1848 to 1914. Artistically, it spans Impressionism and Art Nouveau. With this ticket you'll slip in a dedicated entrance, bypassing the ticket-hungry throngs outside, and enter a world of serene landscapes and poetry in paint.
The museum has two prestigious collections. Water Lilies, the artistic culmination of Claude Monet’s artistic journey, these eight paintings are housed in two oval rooms, encouraging visitors to gaze in endless contemplation. The Walter-Guillaume Collection covers the first decades of the 20th century. The works here, by Renoir, Cezanne, Modigliani, Picasso and more, represent both Impressionism and Modern Classicism.
