Things to do in Paris this week: May 5-11, 2017

‘Peter Campus: Video Ergo Sum’ at Jeu de Paume

Highly recommended and ending soon, this strangely surreal exhibition retraces the seminal work of American video artist, Peter Campus, including some brilliant immersive video installations that alter one’s sense of reality, time and space. Details>>

‘Holocaust and the Comic Books’ at the Shoah Memorial

Part history, part art, this heartrendingly beautiful exhibition at the Shoah Memorial, Paris examines the often-overlooked representation of the Holocaust in comic books. Details>>

Ditch the GPS. Go for a long (or short) walk. Find your own little secrets of Paris. Last weekend, we found some excellent graffiti and street art strolling along Rue Amelot and Passage Saint-Sebastien in the 11th arrondissement of Paris.
