The 3 exhibitions that will highlight the end of your year at the Grand Palais
Mark your calendars! In December, the Grand Palais will host three new exhibitions: a colorful, sensory experience in the world of Japanese artist Mika Ninagawa; an exhibition dedicated to representations of girlhood titled Girls; and an immersion into the creative and personal journey of rapper Oli.
Oli's Imaginary Museum
From December 2, 2026, to February 21, 2027, the Grand Palais will host “Oli’s Imaginary Museum,” an exhibition conceived by Olivio Ordonez, rapper of the famous duo Bigflo & Oli, and developed in collaboration with Jérôme Sans.
What if, as Oli suggests, entering an exhibition were like stepping into an artist’s mind? This is the starting point for this exhibition, conceived as a coming-of-age story. First presented in Toulouse (Les Abattoirs – FRAC Occitanie), Oli’s Imaginary Museum is now on view in Paris, as the natural extension of a journey that has led the artist to the capital.
From his Franco-Algerian and Argentine roots to his time in Paris, and from street culture to museum culture, Oli brings together, without hierarchy, cultural worlds that seem to be polar opposites. Rooted in popular culture and shaped by the stage and the written word, the rapper has made dialogue between disciplines and audiences second nature. At the Grand Palais, he unveils his imagination, his obsessions, his references, his doubts, and his flashes of inspiration, in a museum free from cultural, geographical, symbolic, and sociological boundaries.
Featuring around a hundred works and several installations created specifically for the occasion, the exhibition unfolds like a piece of architecture where sound serves as a unifying thread. A free-flowing journey, to be interpreted through your own lens!
SISTERS, Jim Britt, 1976
Girls: Adolescence, Fashion, and Rebellion
An exhibition like a journey through adolescence and girlhood: from December 9, 2026, to March 21, 2027, the figure of the “young girl” is revealed in all its facets at the Grand Palais.
Long reduced to a few clichés, confined to images of tenderness, innocence, or fragility, the figure of the “young girl” is revealed here in all its richness, complexity, and creative power. Bringing together the perspectives and works of artists, fashion designers, photographers, costume designers, and filmmakers who have contributed to the visual culture of “being a girl,” the exhibition Girls explores the multiple representations of female youth. Through five thematic sections, it examines the enduring influence of this figure on our collective imagination and contemporary visual culture.
Conceived in dialogue with teenage girls and boys, with an approach open to the diversity of identities and experiences, Girls presents a sensitive, vibrant, and resolutely contemporary journey.
Mika Ninagawa with EiM
Alive with shadows
From December 16, 2026, to March 21, 2027, the Grand Palais is dedicating an exhibition to Mika Ninagawa with EiM, a leading figure in Japanese visual arts, for a first-ever presentation of her work in Europe.
Born in Tokyo in 1972, Mika Ninagawa has developed a body of work at the intersection of contemporary imagination and Japanese aesthetic memory. Blending digital art, moving projections, and crystallized forms, the artist and her collective craft lush, almost surreal environments populated by flowers, lights, and fragments of cities. Through her colorful and astonishing works, nature emerges where one least expects it. But behind the striking beauty of her images, more intimate emotions also surface: nostalgia, the fragility of memories, and an awareness of the passing of time and of everything that eventually fades away.
Presented for the first time on this scale, the artist’s universe transforms the Grand Palais into a visual and sensory experience.
Through September 26, Mika Ninagawa’s work is on view in Rouen through monumental projections on the cathedral’s façade, as part of Cathédrale de Lumière 2026.
