Cosmopolitan contemporary art of all colours
Art Shopping is ten years old and has lost none of its freshness, its eclecticism and its world-renowned talent-spotter.
The concept is simple and federative, to make contemporary art more affordable, by highlighting talented artists, with aspiring fame. Taking place at the Carrousel du Louvre and in the same time of the FIAC, Art Shopping share complementarity the same public.
A joyful diversity of people wait at the entrance, for the opening of the exhibition, tempted to discover the new pieces of art : paintings, sculptures, digital art, photography and urban art. At the exhibition's entrance, a sprayed Porsche is an original Street Art decor for selfies.
Suddenly, at the bend of a stand, I discover singular paintings, incredibly powerful: I'm told that the painter, Maryam Alakbarli has Down syndrome. When she realized that her paintings were extremely successful, she decided to set up a foundation to help people with Down syndrome.
