NEW YORK and PARIS, Jan. 24, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Somewhere in Paris, there is a museum for everyone. Anne Carminati, a Parisian creative entrepreneur and interior designer, and James Wesolowski, a technologist and Francophile living between New York and Paris, visited museums in every arrondissement to find 111 institutions of all sorts to feature in their new guidebook, 111 Places Museums in Paris That You Shouldn't Miss (Emons Verlag/Distributed by ACC; $26.95/£13.99, paperback with flaps).
"111 Museums in Paris That You Shouldn't Miss" is a new guidebook that reveals the little-known galleries, gardens, and historic buildings filled with art of all kinds, fashion and design, history and science, and plenty of curiosities all across the City of Lights.
"Our goal with this book is to entice people to venture out and visit all kinds of different museums, whether you live in Paris, you've been here many times before, or you're planning your first visit," says Carminati.
The guidebook is part of the international 111 Places series for local residents and visitors who want to explore beyond the well-trodden paths in cities and regions around the world.
This book reveals galleries inside the Louvre and Orsay Museums that are oases of calm. But it's the smaller collections that offer unique enticements and bigger surprises. The Museum of the Butterfly, the Museum of Hand Fans, and the Museum of Medicine are small and rare gems that most people don't even know about.
The City of Economics is a museum that makes economics fun even for children through interactive games in a spectacular villa that's a major part of the experience. The Bourdelle Museum presents the artist's colossal sculptures in an intimate garden setting. Visitors to the City of Music will be astonished by Chopin's last piano and the only known Stradivarius guitar. The National Air & Space Museum is a joyride through France's aeronautic history, from hot-air ballooning to space exploration.
"The museums in Paris make us cast aside our preconceived notions of what is beautiful or interesting," says Wesolowski. "With the eyes of the world on Paris for the Olympics, we hope our book will entice visitors to explore the museums across this amazing city."
With vibrant photographs by Wesolowski and detailed maps, 111 Museums in Paris That You Shouldn't Miss takes readers on a voyage through myriad galleries, gardens, and historic buildings filled with art of all kinds, fashion and design, history and science, and unique curiosities. The authors will be holding book talks in New York, Washington, Philadelphia, Frederick, and Boston January 25 - February 9, 2024 with Alliance Française Chapters, Rizzoli Bookstore, and Tiara Day Boutique.
