Exhibition “Dessus Dessous” by Julien Desmontiers at Suquet des Artistes
From May 11 to September 22, 2024, the Suquet des Artistes in Cannes presents “Dessus Dessous,” an exhibition dedicated to the artist Julien des Monstiers.
Between fine arts and applied arts, Julien des Monstiers experiments with the limits of painting, while seeking depth, surfaces, textures, folds, and fractures. These works presented at Suquet des Artistes, whether figurative or abstract, aim to show that the subject is not in the image, but in the way it is realized.

“The Kid” – Exhibition on Chaplin as part of the Musée éphémère
Immerse yourself in the world of cinema with this exhibition dedicated to Chaplin, a fascinating experience open to all lovers of the seventh art! In the summer of 2024, we will present “The Kid,” the very first feature film by the incomparable Charlie Chaplin, with an exceptional exhibition organized by the City of Cannes and created by Yves Durand, the brilliant mind behind the Chaplin’s World museum park.
“The Kid” – an autobiographical gem that transcends generations, brilliantly blending comedy and emotion in Chaplin’s inimitable work. More than a hundred years after its release, this masterpiece continues to resonate as a heartfelt appeal, a touching statement on the lives of orphaned children, and an extraordinary celebration of the ability to triumph over adversity.

Exhibition George Nuku – Bottled Sea 2124
A New Zealand artist living in France, George Nuku is descended on his mother’s side from the Maori tribes Ngāti Kahungunu and Ngāti Tuwharetoa. He began working in communities in 1988 and embarked on an artistic career that took him to Europe, the United States, and Asia. Today, he is one of the main figures of the Maori art scene. In 2014, he began a series of exhibitions in polystyrene and plexiglass that evoke the ocean and the problem of plastic waste thrown into it. These works have been exhibited in many museums around the world.
The exhibition at the Musée du Masque de Fer et du Fort Royal presents a selection of the artist’s works and installations inspired by the Lérins Islands and the history of the Iron Mask. The artist was also in residence at Fort Royal to create some of the installations and conduct Arts and Culture Education workshops.
