Musée Zadkine

The Musée Zadkine in Paris's 6th arrondissement is dedicated to the Russian-born sculptor Ossip Zadkine, who lived and worked here from 1928 until his death. One of the few surviving artists' studios in the city, it now houses sculptures and works on paper by the master as well as pieces by his wife, Valentine Prax. The collection is spread across six galleries, while more sculptures can be admired in the garden designed by Gilles Clément. Visitors can take in not only the art but also a library with archival material. A special attraction is the opportunity for visually impaired visitors to touch the works, a practice that goes back to a wish of Zadkine's. Since 2012, the museum has presented its holdings in a new exhibition.
