The Southern Ocean arrives at the Oceanographic Museum

Two new exhibitions to discover until September 26, 2022, in partnership with the French Southern and Antarctic Lands (TAAF).

The year 2022 marks the 250th anniversary of the discovery, a few weeks apart, of the Crozet and Kerguelen archipelagos by France. On this occasion, and as part of the polar program led by the Oceanographic Institute, two new temporary exhibitions are simultaneously presented by the TAAF at the Oceanographic Museum of Monaco from July 26 to September 26, 2022: Voyage en terres australes – Crozet et Kerguelen 1772 -2002 and De Dumont d’Urville at DDU: the French in Antarctica.

About forty panels, combining maps, archival documents, historical and contemporary photographs, occupy the Conference Room of the Oceanographic Museum. Visitors embark on a journey to the heart of the historical and natural heritage of the French Southern and Antarctic Lands, and their contemporary issues.

The Oceanographic Museum is open every day: in August: from 9.30 a.m. to 8 p.m. In September: from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.

CHRISTIAN LOUBOUTIN – L’EXHIBITION[NISTE] – CHAPTER II

A major summer event from the Grimaldi Forum Monaco is dedicated to the work and imagination of Christian Louboutin, a footwear designer and key figure in the fashion industry who has drawn much of his inspiration from the Principality.

The set design encompasses 2,000 m² and unveils previously unseen works tied to the designer’s Monegasque inspirations as well as new collaborations, including a unique project being developed with British artist Allen Jones.

Far from a classic retrospective, the exhibition path was designed as a joyful odyssey through three decades of abundant creativity infused with curiosity for all cultures and arts.

While the shoes will take pride of place, with a selection of unique pieces, the designer especially wanted to pay tribute to those who inspire him and make him dream.

The exhibition will close in August 28, 2022. From 10:00 to 20:00, and Tuesday and Thursday evenings until 22:00 at the Grimaldi Forum Monaco.

Discover more at The Grimaldi Forum website.


Newton, Riviera

The title of the exhibition clearly circumscribes a geography, that of the Côte-d’Azur to Bordighera, in Italy, which Helmut Newton photographed from the 1960s until his death in the early 2000s. “A Riviera” is thus a pretext to explore the work of a major photographer of the 20th century in a different way, through now famous images, like others rarely presented to the public.

At Villa Sauber until 13.11.2022.
