For centuries, Paris was the undisputed art capital of the Western world. Many pioneering, properly perspective-altering artists lived in Paris over the years – van Gogh, Picasso, Monet, Dalí and countless others – and much of their work can be found within the city’s immense number of museums, galleries, attractions, salons and other art spaces.
We say look beyond the mammoth classical institutions and check out some up-and-comers at one of several established contemporary art galleries in Paris. The team over at Time Out Paris have done every gallery in the city (most of them twice), so you can trust them on the best spots. Here is our local’s guide to the best art galleries in Paris right now.
