The Louvre Museum in Paris hosted a roundtable discussion on Friday evening, May 22, 2026, titled 'Morocco and Islamic Arts at the Museum.' The event served as a preview for the upcoming Festival de l'histoire de l'art, scheduled to take place in Fontainebleau from June 5 to 7, 2026.
The roundtable brought together curators, historians, and cultural officials to explore the representation of Moroccan art within the Louvre's Islamic art collection. Discussions focused on historical exchanges between Morocco and Europe, as well as contemporary museological approaches.
The Festival de l'histoire de l'art, an annual event organized by the Institut National d'Histoire de l'Art (INHA) and the ChΓ’teau de Fontainebleau, will feature Morocco as the guest country of honor this year. The program includes exhibitions, conferences, and film screenings highlighting Moroccan artistic heritage.
