The Facts
On September 22, 2026, Getty announced that six large-scale reproductions of artworks from its collection will be installed across Paris from October 1 through November 30, 2026, in partnership with L’Art dans la Ville. The installations include Vincent van Gogh’s “Irises” at Gare de l’Est and “Portrait of Joseph Roulin” at Hôtel de Ville, Gustave Caillebotte’s “Young Man at His Window” at Auteuil, Édouard Manet’s “Jeanne” at Louvre, Lawrence Alma-Tadema’s “Spring” at Notre-Dame, and Paul Cézanne’s “Still Life with Apples” at Sèvres. The project coincides with the 250th anniversary of Franco-American friendship. Katherine E. Fleming, president and CEO of Getty, said the project “reflects Getty’s commitment to sharing art beyond museum walls.”
The Signal
This initiative signals Getty’s growing international strategy, moving its collection into public urban spaces to engage new audiences and foster cross-cultural dialogue. For collectors and curators, it highlights the value of institutional partnerships and the accessibility of art beyond traditional venues. Getty is also deepening its French ties through the 100 Femmes de Culture awards, with honorees announced October 12 at Palais de Tokyo, and grants to the Bibliothèque Nationale de France and Columbia University’s Paris institute. This multi-pronged engagement positions Getty as a key cultural player in France during a historic anniversary.
