Hauser & Wirth has opened a new presentation in Monaco in collaboration with Paulin, Paulin, Paulin, the Paris-based studio dedicated to the legacy of Pierre Paulin. Called Mise-en-scène, the project reshapes the gallery into an immersive environment where design and art are intertwine.
Structured around a series of sculptural furniture pieces, the presentation creates a setting for works by artists including Pablo Picasso, Louise Bourgeois, Jean Arp, Lucio Fontana and Andy Warhol, alongside contemporary figures such as Rashid Johnson, Henry Taylor and Paul McCarthy. By situating these works within a carefully staged interior, the exhibition spotlights the relationship between display and environment.
Running from 9 April through the summer, the presentation also includes a programme of live events organised with Sounds Like Paulin, the record label founded by Benjamin and Alice Paulin. The opening activation features a performance by The Cristalist, with further events scheduled throughout the season. The exhibition is available to visit by appointment, with selected open viewing days beginning 9 April.
