As a preview of the reopening of all its galleries in June 2025, the Grand Palais is presenting an exhibition dedicated to the poetic work of Japanese artist Chiharu Shiota.
Since the mid-90s, the artist has produced installations of interlacing wool yarn, creating spectacular graphic networks through which the visitor must find their way and their place. These giant canvases often envelop objects from her everyday life (chairs, beds, pianos, clothes, etc.) and invite the viewer on a majestic, dreamlike journey.
The exhibition, co-organised with the Mori Art Museum, Tokyo, is the largest ever devoted to Chiharu Shiota in France, spanning more than 20 years of her career. It will offer visitors a sensitive experience through several monumental installations spread over more than 1,200 square metres.
