The cardboard forest at Galleria Continua

The Galleria Continua is an exhibition hall, a café, a bookstore and a grocery store covering eight hundred square meters. This Italian gallery which thrives in Tuscany and Rome opened in Paris in 2021.

She is currently exhibiting the works of Eva Jospin, daughter of Lionel, for the first time in this gallery in the Marais. His exhibition “Tromper l'oeil” covers his work over the last fifteen years on wooden and cardboard supports. Drawing on her training at the Beaux-Arts in Paris, the artist works with plants and culture with relish.

We dive into the forest inspired by the Baroque and the Renaissance. Here, a cave decorated with algae and shells, there, embroidery of silk threads reminiscent of a medieval tapestry.

Remember that Eva Jospin created an installation for a Dior fashion show. There again, rocks and a promontory decorated with lianas. The artist is also currently exhibiting at the Palace of Versailles.

Visiting this exhibition feels like a breath of fresh air in the heart of Paris.
