Step by step, a scientific committee made up of historians, philosophers and writers (Régis Debray, Delphine Horvilleur, Jean-François Colosimo, Jacqueline Chabbi), guides us on the paths to paradise of the three monotheistic religions: Judaism, Christianity and Islam. From oral traditions to founding texts, from Creation to the Garden of Eden, from earthly paradise to the Promised Land and messenger angels, we are invited on a journey between collective imagination, belief and art history. Manuscripts, paintings, graphic arts, videos, art objects..., the works brought together by Lyndia Frenois and Thierry Grillet illustrate the diversity and creativity of Western and Eastern artists who have depicted paradise, from the 3rd millennium BC to the present day: from Lysippos to Philippe de Champaigne, from Brueghel the Velveteen to Bill Viola, from Marc Chagall to Pierre et Gilles.
