Copyists (group show)
Centre Pompidou-Metz
14 June 2025 – 2 February 2026
Works by Giulia Andreani, Glenn Brown, Jeff Koons, Victor Man and Paul McCarthy are included in Copyists, an exhibition at the Centre Pompidou-Metz, in collaboration with the Musée du Louvre, Paris. Dedicated to the creativity of copyists, this unique group exhibition explores the history of copying as a central facet of classical tradition, used as a tool for learning about the canon of art history, as much as its techniques and stories. By absorbing the expertise and mastery of prior generations of artists, copying offers a pathway to knowledge, creation and innovation.
For this exhibition, a number of contemporary artists were invited to make copies of works at the Musée du Louvre, following in the footsteps of their predecessors. Viewers are invited to perform an act of decoding, investigation and understanding, juggling old forms and new. Featuring works by painters, draughtsmen, sculptors, video artists, designers and writers, Copyists mediates the tension between originality and duplication.

Peintures fraîches (group show)
Louvre-Lens
December 2024 – December 2025
Work by Giulia Andreani is included in the group exhibition Peintures fraîches in the Galerie du temps of the Louvre-Lens, a unique space in the museum which encourages dialogue between different artistic forms, technologies and temporalities. The exhibition invites viewers to journey through a ‘River of Time’, bringing together a selection of works which span over 5,000 years of art history. Within the presentation, Andreani’s painting Les Cafus (Europe et Cadmos), 2024, draws inspiration from archival documents to question history and its reception through time. Working in her distinctive palette of Payne’s Grey, Andreani reimagines two female miners, ‘cafus’, who worked underground in the area surrounding the Louvre-Lens, built as it is on a former mining site. Here, the presence and unseen strength of these women is reactivated.

Collector’s Edition (publication)
Published by TASCHEN

Numbered and signed by the artist, this Collector’s Edition treats the viewer to a close encounter with Brown’s eye-deceiving renderings of brushstrokes from sources between Sci-Fi and the Old Masters.
