For the 2024 Olympics, we're off to Galerie La Lison to discover the "Head in the Clouds" exhibition, from July 25 to August 30, 2024. Three artists with a passion for the rooftops of Paris invite you to immerse yourself in their unique, poetic visions of the city.

As part of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, Galerie La Lison invites us to take to the skies with the exhibition Head in the Clouds, from July 25 to August 30, 2024. This unique exhibition showcases the art of " stegophily ", a passion for roof climbing shared by three artists: Simon Nogueira, Ulyana Ginkgo and Cheuminer. Their works offer a fresh, poetic perspective on the roofs of Paris, transforming these familiar structures into veritable works of art.

Simon Nogueira, professional freerunner, returns with his project " The Path is Clear ", a series of vertiginous photographs captured atop Parisian rooftops. His striking shots, taken with a self-timer, reveal an architectural labyrinth where each roof becomes a stage for acrobatic performance.

As forUlyana Ginkgo, she transports us into a dreamlike world with her " Seventh Heaven " series of acrylic paintings. Her paintings blend reality and fantasy, depicting Parisian rooftops enveloped in pink clouds. Her style, influenced byArt Brut, is an invitation to daydream and escape.

Finally, Cheuminer, a former parkour athlete, reinvents street art with his works on the chimneys of Paris. After an injury, he found a new form of expression by painting on rooftops, combining graffiti and chimney fragments. For this exhibition, he transposes his art onto canvas, offering a new dimension to his creations.

An opportunity to discover Paris from a new angle, through the eyes of these daring artists. Ready to rediscover the roofs of Paris for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games?
