You'll never see the world the same way again! Book your tickets to discover, under the glass roof of the Grand Palais or in its exhibition galleries, the large-scale projects by international contemporary artists Leandro Erlich and Laure Prouvost: two exhibitions included in the 2026 summer season Grand Palais d'été, two singular universes... and an invitation to experiment with new ways of perceiving reality.
Leandro Erlich: enter the illusion
After seducing millions of visitors in Tokyo, Miami and Milan, an exhibition devoted to Leandro Erlich arrives for the 1st time in France at the Grand Palais. Through a series of fourteen monumental installations, the artist explores the mechanisms of perception and invites you to question... your own bearings. Distorted architectures, plays on scale, mirrors and trompe-l'œil transform spaces into sensitive experiences, activated by your very presence. Conceived with curator Fabrice Bousteau, the exhibition offers a journey through reality, which seems constantly to shift, between observation and illusion.

Laure Prouvost: a monumental work under the glass roof of the Grand Palais
Inspired by quantum physics, artist Laure Prouvost deploys a multisensory installation under the glass roof of the Grand Palais. The installation combines video, sculpture, sound, light and even odors to offer an experience as close as possible to the material and its most elusive properties. At the heart of the installation, a monumental kinetic sculpture dialogues with visual and sound elements, while sensory objects extend the exploration of a world in constant transformation.
Get ready for some starry thrills: Laure Prouvost’s exhibition is now open!
In the heart of the Grand Palais’s Nef, a monumental presence blurs the boundaries between matter and sensation through July 26. Lights, sounds, scents, videos, and moving installations... the artist invites you to experience a different way of perceiving the world, inspired by the mysteries of quantum physics. Discover Nous, frissons d’étoiles by Laure Prouvost.
