festival-fair · 2026-09-17

On September 15, the Matignon–Saint-Honoré association (MaSH) revealed its plans for the 2026 Nocturne, set to take place at the Bristol in Paris on October 19, 2026. This event is strategically scheduled just before Art Basel, aiming to kick off Paris's art week. MaSH's membership has expanded to 38 dealers, welcoming newcomers Ary Jan, Diane de Polignac, Laurentin, and Ratton-Ladrière. De Jonckheere is making a comeback in Paris with a new opening at 65 rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré. Almine Rech has closed her No. 18 location but is pursuing larger prospects, transferring her lease to Hélène Bailly Marcilhac. Edward Mitterrand commented on the street's low foot traffic. The event will feature performances by Mathieu Forget and Amélie Caussade, with partners including Piaget, Christie's, and Sotheby's.
