Covering the Artist Lars Bo's Engraving Workshop

Lars Bo, a Danish artist born in 1924 and settled in Paris after World War II, considered engraving not merely a means of expression, as Charles Perussaux states. At the Bibliothèque Sainte-Geneviève, immerse yourself in the heart of his creative process. This unique exhibition reveals the secrets of the making of his copper plates and etchings, revealing how the dreamlike creatures and imaginary Scandinavian landscapes take shape. As a mirror to the exhibition “The Engraver and the Enchantments,” it shifts the focus to the behind-the-scenes of Bo’s work, offering a rare glimpse into his universe. Free and accessible from April 17 to July 11, 2026, this immersive experience invites you to understand the magic of engraving and the work of a singular artist.
