Exhibition – Around the world in 50 wine regions

The Cité du Vin is hosting the exhibition Around the World in 50 Wine Regions, a visual journey dedicated to the diversity of international wine-growing regions. This programme showcases a selection of photographs from partner regions, each of which has chosen an iconic image to embody its landscape, people or heritage.

The curatorial approach is based on a cross-sectional interpretation of the vineyards, without geographical hierarchy or strict technical classification. The photographs interact with each other through three major themes:

• • the morphology of wine-growing landscapes,
  • the representation of professional gestures
  • and the historical roots of the terroirs.

An immersion into ten years of artistic enrichment

The musée des beaux-arts de Bordeaux offers a renewed interpretation of its collections through the exhibition “Passions collections,” structured around a body of works acquired over a full decade. This curatorial approach highlights not only rarely displayed pieces but also the scientific and heritage-driven logic behind public acquisitions. The exhibition design follows a precise museographic framework aimed at illustrating how a collection evolves through institutional decisions and art market opportunities.

The year 2026 promises to be a colorful one in Bordeaux! At Bassins des Lumières, this renowned digital art center, located in the city’s former submarine base, offers a fascinating experience immersed in the world of two iconic 20th-century artists: Henri Matisse and Frida Kahlo.
