Exhibition - "Francisco Tropa - Paesine"
From Friday 6 December 2024 to Monday 21 April 2025, from 10 AM to 6 PM, Nouveau Musée National de Monaco - Villa Paloma
The exhibition takes its name from "pietre paesine", ruined marble, whose geological markings are reminiscent of painted landscapes, on the boundary between figuration and abstraction. This analogy of nature and technique is a central theme in the work of Francisco Tropa, which focuses on the way in which an image appears and is perceived.

Exhibition - "Agora, the Place of the Museum"
From Friday 24 January to Sunday 4 May 2025, Nouveau Musée National de Monaco - Villa Sauber
Back in 2015, the NMNM debited its first ever LAB giving visitors a glimpse "behind the scenes of the museum". Then in 2018, five guest artists were invited to produce their own musings on the very meaning of the museum itself. In 2025, as the Villa Sauber prepares to undergo a radical transformation, the NMNM is giving pride of place to its public-facing programmes, where the focus is on artists and promoting a wider sharing of art appreciation.
Festival - "Printemps des Arts de Monte-Carlo"
From Sunday 2 March to Sunday 27 April 2025, Principality of Monaco
The Printemps des Arts de Monte-Carlo 2025 Festival will celebrate the centenary of Pierre Boulez, a leading figure in the world of contemporary music, who pioneering work and worldwide influence will be explored through a series of concerts, screenings, and performances. The Festival will also showcase the artistic connections between Boulez and painter Francis Bacon. Six of Bacon's paintings, created around the time the two men met in Paris, illustrate the themes of human fragility and time and reflect on the ways in which music and painting each inspire the other. The dialogue between two of the 20th century's great cultural geniuses is a unique immersion in their artistic world.

Lecture - "The Return of the Alpine Ibex!"
Wednesday 26 March 2025, at 6 pm, Musée d’Anthropologie Préhistorique
In the early days of the 19th century, the Alpine ibex was almost entirely wiped out, with only a handful of individuals remaining in the Gran Paradiso massif. The king of Italy resolved to protect it, and so efforts began to save this iconic yet severely endangered Alpine species. Thanks to initiatives to reintroduce ibexes and the tireless work of many dedicated people, the silhouette of the animal's two immense horns can now be seen once more on the ridgelines of the Austrian Alps. But the Alpine Ibex still faces numerous challenges, from climate change and new diseases, to a limited gene pool and encroachment on its habitats. The Mercantour National Park is doing its best to help safeguard the future of an emblematic species that came so close to extinction.
Le Printemps des Arts - "Jolivet - Ravel - Cendo"
Thursday 27 March 2025, at 7.30 pm, Auditorium Rainier III
Not merely a composer, conductor, and builder of institutions, Pierre Boulez was also a virtuoso when it came to courting controversy. This "confrontation concert" by the Ensemble Linea pits two composers against one another, one who felt the bite of Boulez' critique, the other a critic of Boulez himself. The first is André Jolivet (whose talent Boulez nonetheless acknowledged), the second Raphaël Cendo, an artist who loves to push the envelope and is known for his "saturated music" concept.

In this brilliant detective story, a woman has disappeared. Her husband, Daniel Corban reports his wife Elisabeth missing. When the village priest tells him he has found her, Daniel is dumbstruck. The woman claiming to be his wife... is not. More shocking still is the fact that, since they were only recently married, nobody else seems to know what Mme Corban looks like. This Mme Corban says her husband is suffering from amnesia. Has he gone mad, or is he the victim of some diabolical scheme? A debonair police commissioner takes charge of the investigation...
