LUDOVIC BARON , sublimating time, revealing humanity
At La Samaritaine, Ludovic Baron presents a retrospective of ten years of creation, where reality, heritage and human values are sublimated by a resolutely contemporary perspective.
His work acts as a sensitive mirror: each image invites the visitor to recognize themselves, to project themselves, to connect to a visual narrative that transcends aesthetics.
For the third consecutive year, La Samaritaine is entrusting its fifth floor to the artist, affirming a natural dialogue between this emblematic place and an artistic approach deeply rooted in Parisian history, memory and modernity.
Featuring previously unseen images and landmark works, the exhibition spans the 19th to mid-20th centuries, showcasing the artist's use of contemporary tools in his creative process. A timeless and innovative approach.
This edition marks a key step in the career of Ludovic Baron, who here chooses to share a global and inclusive vision of art, also inviting a talent from his Art Photo Success program.
The experience is finally extended into an immersive 3D space on Xclusiv.World, offering the public a new way to experience art, with no limits other than imagination.
This year's featured artist is Belgian artist Daniele Zucker
For this edition, Ludovic Baron wanted to invite Daniele Zucker because of the emotional strength and accuracy of his perspective.
Her work explores ephemeral beauty, the fragility of the visible, and that which, in reality, lasts only an instant. A sensitive approach that resonates directly with Ludovic Baron's work.
Through his images, Daniele Zucker manages to capture the vulnerability of beauty, that subtle tension between appearance and disappearance. A delicate, profoundly human photographic style that particularly moved Ludovic Baron.
By offering him this exhibition space at La Samaritaine, Ludovic Baron affirms his desire to highlight a remarkable work, driven by a rare artistic sincerity, and to share with the public a vision of art based on emotion, transmission and dialogue.

ABOUT THE SAMARITAN
Experience the exhibition on the 5th floor of the Parisian temple of luxury.
Founded by Ernest and Marie-Louise Cognac-Jaÿ in 1870, the small boutique on Rue du Pont-Neuf has become more than just a department store: the quintessential Parisian destination in the heart of the capital. In 2021, it reopened to the public after exceptional renovations that breathed new life into the iconic Art Nouveau building and unveiled a contemporary structure on Rue de Rivoli.
LVMH has entrusted DFS, the world leader in luxury travel retail, with the design and operation of La Samaritaine. Spanning 20,000 square meters, it now offers a selection of over 600 iconic and cutting-edge brands in fashion, watches, jewelry, and the largest beauty department in Europe. Because Paris is unique, La Samaritaine aims to be a showcase of the French art of living and has created a unique and exclusive collection of dining and refreshment options. Whatever our visitors' desires, from early morning until late at night, there are numerous opportunities to enjoy a gourmet break at La Samaritaine.
