DESIGN
NEXT EDITION 22/25 OCTOBRE 2026 | PARIS
Following a successful edition in 2025, Moderne Art Fair will return to the iconic Place de la Concorde from 22 to 25 October 2026.
More than sixty French and international galleries will take up residence at the venue, alongside exhibitions, talks and book signings. The architecture, which proved so popular in 2025, will be retained, with the layout redesigned to preserve the fair’s simplicity and ensure a smooth visitor experience.
A challenging overview of modern and contemporary art.
The 2025 edition fostered a rich dialogue between modern art, contemporary art and design, thanks to a carefully curated selection of works presented by leading galleries, innovative exhibitions and collaborations with committed art institutions. Moderne Art Fair appeals to a wide audience, ranging from the most seasoned collectors to discerning art lovers, exploring artistic emotions and meaning.
An artistic committee comprising recognised and committed experts.
To ensure a high standard of quality and relevance in the selection of participating galleries, a new artistic committee has been formed. Comprising nine recognised figures from the art world – gallery owners, collectors, critics and representatives of art institutions – this committee reflects the diversity and high standards of the fair. Its members include Lumir Ardant, David-Hervé Boutin, Pierre Cornette de Saint-Cyr, Baudoin Lebon, Julia Muuls, David Nahmad, Blaise Parinaud, Pierre Vasarely and Diane Venet.
A long-term commitment to art and its promotion.
Since its inception under the name Art Élysées, the fair has always been committed to promoting modern and contemporary art through an approach that is both accessible and of high quality. Moderne Art Fair continues this mission with ambition: to create a space conducive to discovery, reflection and the sharing of knowledge, whilst fostering lasting exchanges between artists, galleries and collectors. Through a rigorous selection process, an ambitious exhibition design and an exceptional setting, Moderne Art Fair 2026 reaffirms its mission: to showcase art in Paris by fostering openness, dialogue and excellence.

Henri Jobbe-Duval shares
his vision for Moderne Art Fair
A leading figure in the French art market, Henri Jobbe-Duval has been instrumental in the creation and growth of Paris’s major art events — from FIAC, which he helped launch in 1974, to Art Paris, Révélations and La Biennale. Building on this half-century of dedication, he is now taking on the role of artistic director of Moderne Art Fair. In this video, he unveils his vision for the fair: an event that is both discerning and accessible, bringing together modern art and contemporary creation, all at the Place de la Concorde. Combining the passing on of knowledge, dialogue and discovery, he presents his vision for this new edition, running from 22 to 25 October 2026.
