# Jenny Holzer: *J’ai vu*

Oct 20, 2026 – Feb 21, 2027 · coming up

- Sun, Oct 18, 2026: Text projections on the Seine façade, nightly through Oct 22, 7–11 pm

Jenny Holzer’s texts drawn from the museum’s archives and 19th-century writing, in LED displays, metal-leaf paintings, engraved stone benches and façade projections.

Made for the museum, the show threads an LED installation of moving colored text through the domed galleries of history painting, naturalism and symbolism, beside Holzer’s gold, platinum and palladium leaf paintings, whose largely hidden content shifts with the light off the Seine. New stone benches engraved with texts from 1848–1914 stand on the ground floor and in the galleries.

During opening week, texts by Flaubert, Cézanne, Van Gogh, Zola and others are projected on the Seine façade.
