Ready to be captivated? If you’re in Paris before November 11th, discover Atelier des Lumières, Paris’s first digital art center featuring 120 video-projectors. The space, a former 19th-century iron foundry in the 11th arrondissement, opened this past April with the show Klimt and Vienna. “We cross over 100 years of Viennese painting through the pictorial work of Gustav Klimt (1862-1918), Egon Schiele (1890-1918) and Friedensreich Hundertwasser (1928-2000) thanks to a breathtaking visual and sound show.”
Here I take you on a little journey to discover these artists like you’ve never seen them before. Personally, I’ve only ever seen something as magical at Carrières de Lumières in Baux-de-Provence while visiting Baumanière.
This is a difficult experience to capture well on film or video, and one that merits a visit. You will thank me!
This looks awesome, I’ll be in Paris next month, I’ll definitively try to check it out!
You’ll absolutely love the light show, Julie! Enjoy Paris!!
I urge everyone and anyone to see this “Picture, Sound and Light” show. It’s a breathtakingly good idea. I am sure everyone who sees it will be spellbound, I know I was and might even go again.
Best wishes for a great time.
Isn’t it magical, Anne? There’s another light show in Provence that I’m sure you will love as well.
I treated my 15 yr old granddaughter to her first visit to Paris in June. I thought a visit to L’Atelier des Lumieres (https://www.atelier-lumieres.com/) would be a great adventure for a rainy day. We were both mesmerized and agree that it’s a MUST see! We’re so glad we didn’t wait for a rainy day.
So happy you both loved it! Such a special experience! Looking forward to the next show…
This was the most beautiful and captivating art exhibit I’ve ever seen. It is so well done and the voice of music actually brought people to tears. I highly recommend a visit. Thank you for sharing!
I agree that the show is very special. We watched it from above and it was absolutely mesmerizing!
I am making my first trip to Paris next month and this is on my list now of must-do’s. Any suggestions for when the best/least packed time to visit would be for a Sunday?
For the weekend you need to book tickets online and can see the numbers sold. I would recommend the morning or later evening as the afternoons are most busy. Enjoy!
Where is the light show? Address please. Merci
This show takes place at Atelier des Lumières, located at 38 Rue Saint-Maur in the 11th arrondissement. It’s a magical experience!
