If you like art or are even mildly interested in art, Paris has both an abundant and intimidating level of choice. The exact number of museums varies according to how you might define a museum but it’s been estimated that there are over 130 museums in Paris, including marquee destinations and smaller museums that showcase a wide range of art, history, science, and culture. And if you like or are curious about contemporary art, there are countless galleries and private foundations. Navigating it all can be slightly overwhelming which is why I wanted to bring on Alex Weinress, an art industry professional who offers bespoke art experiences through her company The Seen Paris. In our chat, she speaks to the city’s art scene, how she approaches viewing and understanding art, the best smaller institutions to visit, and what she thinks about immersive exhibitions.
