Temporary Exhibitions 2025-2026 at the Atelier des Lumières in Paris

EGYPT OF THE PHARAOHS - FROM KHUFU TO RAMSES II: From February 9, 2024, to January 5, 2025

From February 9, 2024, the exhibition immerses visitors in the world of the pharaohs of Egypt. It begins with the discoveries of French scientists from 1798-1801, illustrated by bas-reliefs, paintings, and papyri. The journey along the Nile showcases daily life, the construction of the pyramids, and the treasures of the pharaohs. Sculptures of famous rulers like Khafre and Nefertiti stand alongside representations of the temples of Luxor to Abu Simbel. The exhibition culminates with the astronomical ceiling of Dendera, inviting the ongoing exploration of the mysteries of ancient Egypt.

THE ORIENTALISTS - INGRES, DELACROIX, GÉRÔME...: From February 9, 2024, to January 5, 2025

The 19th-century orientalism exhibition features works by Delacroix, Gérôme, Ingres, and others, exploring the exotic and imagined Orient. It begins with Delacroix’s travel sketches, full of plays on light and shadow, and continues with scenes of oriental life captured by other artists. Visitors discover the alleys, souks, palace courtyards, and deserts, accompanied by the sounds, scents, and wild animals of the East. The exhibition culminates with Ingres’ “La Grande Odalisque,” a symbol of idealized orientalism, before returning to the salons of 19th-century Paris.

FOREIGN NATURE - CONTEMPORARY CREATION: From February 9, 2024, to January 5, 2025

In "Foreign Nature," Julius Horsthuis creates a universe that merges art and mathematics through computer fractals. The exhibition is divided into two parts: the first explores industrial and mechanical landscapes, with spaceships and structures reminiscent of churches. The second part presents extraterrestrial landscapes and forms, blending the vegetal and the mechanical, like a transforming botanical cathedral. These worlds combine familiar forms and fantastic elements, accompanied by music by Ben Lukas Boysen. Horsthuis compares his style to that of a documentary filmmaker, capturing the existence of fractals in a creative process of discovery.
