The Bastille's Big Contemporary Art Market
Octobre 30th - November 4th, 2007

Opening on Tuesday, October 30th from 5:00pm to 10:00pm

Since 1994 this art show is a delight to art enthusiast with its eclectism and its coloufull stands.
Everything strats with the magic of the place itself... the Bastille harbour, the boats, the pool, the footbridge, the gardens, everything contribute to a very special place indeed. Listen to visitors and exhibitors: "it's "à la Bastille and nowhere else!"
The "First exhibition" zone is getting bigger. Due to last year's success, artists taking advantage of this great opportunity are coming back in numbers and want to meet again the 30.000 visitors they met for the first time last year and become full exhibitors.

les vieux papiers (the old papers)
Espace Champerret from October 26th to November 4th

We familiarly call it " the old papers", but this year's edition of the 62nd "Salon du livre, papiers anciens et produits régionnaux" is nothing else than THE yearly ritual for collectors where to find the rare books or ancient parchment they're craving for...
About 200 exhibitors ( gathered around the very same paper fever) coming from all parts of France, are offering all sorts of stuff from what has been writen, printed, drawn, painted or even carved from the earliest times to the present day: ancient books, press and old postcards, manuscripts, prints, stamps, posters (advertisings or politics), chromos, Stock bonds, pictures, you name it... not to mention the "funny" and "odds" advertising objects. This year's main theme is the Eiffel tower.
