On the initiative of the Salon du dessin, the museums of Paris and the Ile de France region celebrate drawing….
Since its creation in 1999 by the Salon du dessin, the Drawing Week is present in very varied places, like the drawings presented there.
Again this year, the Drawing Week will be a chance to compare drawings from the past with contemporary sheets, thus seducing both collectors and connoisseurs, those familiar with them and the youngest bargain hunters.And of course, it will allow exchanges and dialogues with specialists.
In this context, each participating museum organises an exhibition and/or private visits of its collections or its temporary events.
These private visits are free and open to all subject to availability.
Reservations are made on the site of the Salon du dessin only, and you can register for a maximum of 3 events.
Information 29th edition
Dear visitors,
Due to the gravity of the international situation resulting from the spread of COVID-19 and in order to protect the health of all parties concerned, we have decided to cancel the 29th edition of the Salon du dessin.
France officially declared a state of health emergency on 24 March for two months and there are still numerous uncertainties regarding the evolution of the pandemic over the coming months. These factors make it impossible to reprogram the Salon before the summer of 2020 and the Salon du dessin, which usually attracts numerous other events in Paris for a week, will therefore not take place this year.
Louis de Bayser, President of the Salon du dessin said “this is a difficult decision to take with regard to all those who worked hard for this edition, but our priority is to protect the health of all our exhibitors, visitors and partners”.
We send our thoughts to all those affected by this epidemic and hope that this unprecedented health situation will quickly change favorably.
