Simone FattalDes villes au fond d’un lac

Musée d’Art Moderne de Paris

Sep 18, 2026 – Jan 24, 2027 Trocadéro

About a hundred works from more than fifty years by the Damascus-born artist, from early landscape paintings to ceramics and collages.

Fattal, born in 1942 and long based in Paris, began painting trees, seafronts and mountains in Beirut in the late 1960s, took up clay in 1988 after moving to California, and returned to landscape in watercolor and ink in the 2010s. Her ceramic figures draw on ancient epics, from Gilgamesh to the Odyssey.

The works are grouped by theme rather than date. It is her first exhibition in a Paris museum.
