Vous avez dit surréaliste ?
Known for its historic artistic fever, the Saint-Germain-des-Prés district continues to attract creative minds, who join forces every November to offer an inspiring itinerary. This 13th edition welcomes new venues - including the bookshop and cultural space 8lithèque, the Penninghen art school, the Gallimard gallery and the Alain Brieux bookshop - as well as a new three-way collaboration between the festival, the Beaux-Arts de Paris and the École nationale supérieure de la photographie in Arles, with a group exhibition of works by students from both institutions. It's an opportunity to discover an impressive pool of young talent, who could well be exhibiting tomorrow in one of the historic galleries of the area and of the festival, such as Georges-Philippe et Nathalie Vallois, Le Minotaure, Roger-Viollet, or Berthet-Aittouarès, where you can discover the Surrealist treasures from the collection of Georges Goldfayn, assistant and friend of André Breton.
