Dishes of Celebration: The Drawn Portion

In 1927, Édouard Manet had already anticipated this culinary celebration! The exhibition “Plats de fêtes: the Drawn Part” at the heart of a Parisian library offers an immersion in the art of the table through original works and reproductions.

A unique opportunity for art and gastronomy enthusiasts to come together in a friendly and inspiring setting. The Goutte d'Or library invites a playful reflection on the link between art and food.
