The exhibition fills the whole building in two parts. Three floors reunite, for the first time in a century, works Fayet (1865–1925) once owned: 10 Van Goghs, 78 Gauguins and 86 Redons among them. Van Gogh’s Self-Portrait with Bandaged Ear and Pipe is in France for the first time since 1937. The top floor shows 374 of Fayet’s own works, most never exhibited and newly restored: ceramics, watercolors on blotting paper, carpets, dresses and illustrated books. Sylvie Patry is chief curator; Robert Carsen designed the installation.

Alfaraj (born 1993), who lives in the Al-Ahsa oasis, made this site-specific work for Gallery 8; it is his first solo show in a French institution. Images of palm groves, desert and mountains surround the room, and a photograph on the ceiling looks up as if from the bottom of a well. The five short films, each written, performed and animated by the artist, play in turn as separate tales. The title draws on a local belief that a dragonfly circling at sunset brings good news.
