BEYOND THE STREETS – Paris Catalogue

In the summer of 2026 BEYOND THE STREETS from Los Angeles made a huge exhibition in Paris at the Grande Halle de la Villette. Spanning 3600 square meters of gallery space, this expansive exhibition brought together over 100 internationally renowned artists and writers, showcasing new and historic works alongside rare ephemera, archival fashion, and artist-driven installations – most created exclusively for this presentation.
