For one week in May, the Fondation Cartier will be hosting a “Nomadic Nights” series to run in conjunction with an exhibition celebrating the works of American artist and film director David Lynch. Organized by Lynch himself, the “Nomadic Nights” series at the contemporary art gallery allows visitors to browse the exhibit while rocking out to a band or listening to a discussion—all with the hopes that the two aesthetic forms presented side-by-side will productively illuminate one another. Each night presents a different group or performer. Tickets run a relatively cheap €10.

As another part of the “Nomadic Nights” series, Archie Shepp’s birthday bash will be held in the Fondation Cartier’s garden on May 7. The American jazzman has orchestrated a new work for the occasion and, at 70, can still jam like a champ.

Tickets must be purchased in advance at the Fondation Cartier ticket booth. The Fondation is located at 261 boulevard Respail. The closest metro stations are Raspail and Denfert Rochereau (lines 4 and 6).
