Alert friends, the Poste du Louvre in Paris is once again hosting a giant free urban art festival from November 16 to 24, 2024. Over 1,500 m2 of indoor and outdoor space, more than fifteen artists will be letting loose with paintings, sculptures and live performances. Jo Di Bona, Ardif, Astro, Kaldea and Jérôme Mesnager will be on hand...

Attention street-art fans! The Festival d'art Street-Art & Contemporain à la Poste du Louvre is back for a second edition from November 16 to 24, 2024. And best of all, it's free! It's a unique opportunity to rediscover and reappropriate this recently renovated Parisian landmark, an emblem of late 19th-century architecture. We set off to discover this exhibition, which is currently being set up, and take a look at a few images of what's in store!

The building, originally designed by Julien Guadet, is a majestic blend of stone and metal. Thanks to the talent of architect Dominique Perrault, the renovation work has magnified the historicity of the premises. The 1,200 m2 semi-covered inner courtyard, where the building's metal frame unfurls, is a particular highlight. It is here, in the heart of this courtyard, that 12 street artists will be performing their monumental works.

In addition to the courtyard, the building's surroundings are also fascinating. Modern glass structures house a variety of living spaces, including the sumptuous 5-star "Madame Rêve" hotel. Upstairs, a 500 m2 planted rooftop invites you to relax, complemented by a 360 m2 lounge bar and panoramic terrace.

Inside, a two-storey showroom awaits us once again. It retains the industrial spirit originally intended, with its exposed ducts, concrete floor and metal staircase. It's in this space that you'll be able to admire the works of over fifteen participatingartists, presented in a harmonious scenography. In short, the exhibition will cover 350 m2 indoors and 1200 m2 outdoors.
