Getting started
Arrive at Bassins des Lumières at the time shown on your ticket and head straight to the main entrance. Scan your ticket, pass a quick security check, and step directly into the digital exhibition space.
What to expect
Walk through vast halls where towering walls and reflective water basins transform into moving canvases of light, color, and music. Watch Matisse’s vibrant compositions and Frida Kahlo’s powerful imagery unfold around you in a continuous 360° visual and sound journey. The open layout lets you linger, move closer to details, or simply sit and absorb the spectacle at your own pace.
Features
Monumental Projections: Floor-to-ceiling digital displays cover the walls and water surfaces, creating a fully surround-screen art experience.
Two artists, one visit: Access both the main Matisse immersive exhibition and the short Frida Kahlo program with a single ticket.
Historic venue: Explore a WWII submarine base reimagined as a cutting-edge digital art center, adding atmosphere and scale to the experience.
