Paris Region’s exciting choice of exhibitions also includes fashion events at the Palais Galliera, honouring the artistic vibrancy of 1997, and at the Musée Yves Saint Laurent, where the fashion designer’s superb creations are presented in gold and gilt. And we haven’t forgotten the female artists and muses who demonstrate their talent in some of the Paris Region’s most beautiful museums, from the committed feminist Faith Ringgold at the Musée Picasso to the divine Sarah Bernhardt at the Petit Palais and the French sculptor Germaine Richier at the Centre Pompidou. And many more.
