This summer in Paris there are some delectable small bites.
Yes, definitely see the major blockbusters showing around town but don’t miss some of the smaller exhibitions on show.
The Paris List: Small Bites
Sèvres Outdoors
Many contemporary galleries are moving their artwork outside to the gardens of the Cité de la Céramique at Sèvres. A selection of sculptures and installations are finding new homes – works by Johan Creten, Laurent Tixador and Mathieu Mercier. Whilst exploring the gardens, expect to see a crazy chandelier, upside down umbrellas and short film screenings – it’s a joyous exhibition for when the sun is shining.
