The spaces : The temporary exhibitions gallery

Every year, two exhibitions of international scope examine an era, a civilization, a major artist or particular themes that are of universal importance in the history of art and humanity.

Each exhibition offers completely new displays and a fresh layout, providing visitors with a novel, original experience. The exhibitions are accompanied by a varied programme of events ranging from live performances, concerts and talks to film screenings and discussions, as well as numerous activities adapted to audiences of all kinds.

Thanks to the excellence of its displays, which are educational and accessible to all, the Louvre-Lens plays a leading role in international cultural seasons.
