Urban Art Fair at Carreau du Temple

Urban Art Fair 2025 is preparing to wow us with contemporary art market artists linked to graffiti.

From April 24th to 27th , the Carreau du Temple will be transformed into a giant playground for around a hundred urban artists from all corners of the globe. On the program: some forty galleries, including 25 newcomers, who will be pulling out all the stops to entice collectors and the curious alike.

This year, the fair is banking on an explosive mix of established artists and ambitious young talents. Visitors will encounter both the renowned Invader , the French street artist famous for his Space Invader mosaics installed in more than 79 cities worldwide, and Yohei Takahashi , known for his colorful murals and live painting performances.

Other big, more familiar names, such as Jérôme Mesnager — known for his "Man in White", an iconic silhouette he has been painting on walls around the world since 1983 — will be alongside emerging talents like Zurik , a graffiti artist and graphic designer recognized for his dynamic and colorful style inspired by WildStyle, or Cryptik , who since 2008 has been creating characteristic works with elaborate calligraphy blending spirituality and urban art in what he calls the "Cryptic Movement".

Hiroshi Mori will also be featured , a Japanese artist known for his works blending anime and pop art with religious portraits from the Renaissance, creating a unique bridge between traditional art and contemporary culture.

The perfect opportunity to take the pulse of a constantly bubbling scene where the boundaries between the street and the galleries are blurred by spray paint.

Between solo shows that allow you to dive into an artist's world, live performances that promise their share of surprises, and installations designed especially for the event, it's hard to get bored.

Visitors, whether seasoned collectors or simply curious, can wander through a joyful art bazaar and take the pulse of a constantly buzzing scene. And why not leave with a piece of street art under your arm?
