Exhibiting in Paris
Exhibition experience in a gallery or partner space at the heart of the Parisian art scene.
Paris is one of the historic capitals of European artistic imagination. Exhibiting here means entering a stratified cultural fabric, where institutions, historic galleries and new independent scenes coexist. Within Darte's European program, Paris is the bridge between museum tradition and contemporary research.

AI isn’t just learning how to make images. It’s learning how easily it can imitate what we call style.
Helen Beard: desire changes perspective
Saturated colours, tightly framed bodies, and images suspended between figuration and abstraction. Helen Beard uses painting to place female desire at the centre of the image, turning eroticism into a question of perspective, freedom, and representation.

Distorted bodies, Venetian pink, sex, humour, and sudden eruptions of violence. Oh de Laval creates apparently playful scenes to explore desire, morality, and human behaviour. But who really decides where pleasure ends and transgression begins?
