Musée Banksy (Paris 9th)
About
Explore the mysterious world of the globe's most iconic street artist at the Banksy Museum, located in Paris's 9th arrondissement. This permanent exhibition invites you on a journey through his most significant murals, originally found in cities ranging from London and Bristol to Bethlehem and Los Angeles. It is a unique opportunity to decipher the universal messages hidden within his provocative and thought-provoking art. Whether you are a dedicated fan or new to his work, the museum offers a comprehensive perspective on his elusive career. The exhibition is open every day of the week, allowing you to visit at your own convenience.
Open since June 2019, what was supposed to be just a temporary museum space has become permanent, and today the Banksy Museum and its permanent exhibition are open every day of the year.
The Banksy Museum offers an immersion into the heart of Banksy's work and a journey that transcends borders. From Paris to London, from Bristol to Bethlehem, from Los Angeles to Port Talbot, Banksy is a cross-border traveler, an ephemeral migrant, a universal citizen who conveys messages that are just as universal.
But it is also a journey through time, a discovery or rediscovery of Banksy's murals, which time has sometimes made disappear, which the hand of man has inadvertently covered up, and which commercial appeal has often taken away from our eyes as passersby.
Our take on this event
Located in the 9th arrondissement, the Banksy Museum serves as a permanent tribute to the work of the world's most enigmatic graffiti artist. Since opening in June 2019, the space has provided a unique opportunity to view reproductions of murals that have often been lost, painted over, or hidden by commercial development. The collection spans the artist's international career, capturing his spirit as a universal citizen who addresses global issues across borders.
The exhibition is open daily, providing complete flexibility for your visit. It offers a deep dive into the artist's history, moving from the streets of London and Paris to the landscapes of Port Talbot and beyond. By preserving these works, the museum ensures that Banksy's powerful commentary remains accessible, allowing visitors to engage with the themes that defined his international reputation. Please note that access to the exhibition is ticketed.
