Jean Chatelus, who passed away in 2021 at the age of 82, was a Lyon-born historian and lecturer at the Sorbonne. Throughout his life, he amassed a collection unique, driven more by an impulse to accumulate than by a traditional collector’s approach. Comprising nearly 400 pieces—sculptures, installations, paintings, photographs, drawings, votive and vernacular objects—the collection explores themes of the body, death, and the fleeting nature of life.Presented almost in its entirety, the collection reflects Chatelus’s evolving tastes: from an early fascination with Surrealism and repurposed objects, to a later focus on body art. It also reveals his keen interest in non-Western ethnographic artifacts, folk traditions, and the works of contemporary art’s outsiders and enfant terribles, including Cindy Sherman, Mike Kelley, Christian Boltanski, Yayoi Kusama, Michel Journiac, Daniel Spoerri, Robert Filliou, Nam June Paik, Joana Vasconcelos, Andres Serrano, and Wim Delvoye.

The moment you step into the garden of Versailles, you feel like you are in the golden dream of the Sun King. The hedges trimmed into geometric patterns are oily in the sun, and the golden chariots of the Apollo statue in the fountain pool seem to break out of the water. I walked barefoot across the lawn to the night music fountain show, the water column danced with the baroque movement, and the moonlight plated the silver edge of the Latona fountain. The most shocking thing is to stand at the end of the Grand Canal and look back at the palace, 300 years ago, the extreme luxury and human artistic ambition, spread out into a living oil painting in the sunset.

The last stop before leaving Paris was the Pompidou Center. The building&#39;s appearance is very unique, like a large industrial factory. No wonder it is written on the Internet as an industrial modern style.
I bought tickets online and the tickets were issued fairly quickly. I waited for less than an hour.
Art exhibitions, although I don&#39;t have artistic cells, I followed my feelings, walked slowly, strolled slowly, and understood and appreciated from my own perspective.
