Exhibition Edvard Munch in Paris
Edvard Munch (1863-1944) is wrongly known only to a single work: The Scream. Awareness of this iconic painting certainly has meant to conceal the true size and true message of the artist. So a new day as the Pinacotheque presents this unique man until July 18th. Drawings, paintings, sculptures, collages, photographs and films, Munch has been consistently pushing the boundaries between media and technology. With these overruns, but no limits for his age, this accomplished artist leaves a deeply moving work. Edvard Munch fits brilliantly in the tradition of William Turner and a Gustave Courbet, but with an unmistakable.
Edvard Munch or the Anti-Scream until July 18, 2010.
Normal price: 10€.
Reduced price: 8€ (aged from 12 to 25 years-old, students, unemployed etc..).

Maison de poupée
In the play Maison de Poupée -A Doll’s House-, Audrey Tautou portrays Nora, a woman who despite her perfect life (a nice home, a husband and children), will create a scandal in the nineteenth century. Carefree, she plays with life, with others and with herself to the point of no return. This play by Ibsen shows a modern nineteenth century, with all the fantasies and clichés from that time. To quote the author so well: “Life is not sad – life is ridiculous and that’s unbearable!“. A man who apparently caught it long before feminism today, the status of women of his time.
A Doll’s House until the end of May 2010.
Rates: from 20€ to 47€.

Paul Anka in Paris
There is something in his voice as a bit of nostalgia that takes you back to your childhood, hiding in the skirts of your mother, or tenderly entwined with your loved one. Paul Anka, a real crooner, knew to sing love over the continents. In “Put Your Head On My Shoulder” to “It’s time to cry” and “Puppy Love” to “My Home Town”, his hits are timeless. In addition to being a recognized artist, he can boast of having written some of the biggest hits of his fellow singers ( “She’s a Lady” among other, by Tom Jones). This is the opportunity to rediscover with your parents or your grandparents, this extraordinary showman for a single date in the French capital.
Concert Sunday, June 6th, 2010 at 7pm.
Ticket prices: from 95€ in category 3, up to 150€ in category 1.
