A whimsical new art exhibition is set to take the Parisian art scene by storm this May. Featuring playful and up-beat paintings of childlike figures against some of Paris's most iconic landmarks, the exhibition promises to be a must-see event for art enthusiasts and casual observers alike.

The exhibition, titled "Blue Boy and Red Boy" is the brainchild of contemporary artists Zoia Skoropadenko and Clem Chambers, who draw inspiration from their own childhood emotions and the thrill of exploring Paris for the first time. Through their art, Zoia and Clem capture the innocent joy and wonder that they experienced as a child, while paying tribute to Paris’s transcendent appeal.

What sets titled "Blue Boy and Red Boy" apart from other art exhibitions is its fun. The juxtaposition of childlike figures and recognisable Parisian landmarks is joyous. Red Boy and Blue Boy are archetypes we all recognise with their round faces and exaggerated features, giving them a playful and almost cartoonish appearance. Against this backdrop, Zoia Skoropadenko paints some of Paris's most iconic landmarks, such as the Eiffel Tower, the Arc de Triomphe, and Notre Dame Cathedral.

The exhibition is particularly aimed at Parisian art collectors and is held in Paris's trendy Marais neighbourhood in a gallery in the heart historical gem Place des Vosges right beside the National Museum of Victor Hugo. Skoropadenko and Chambers hope their playful and colorful artwork will appeal to everyone, offering them a sense of nostalgia and wonder that is both lighthearted and meaningful.

"I wanted to create something that would speak to people's inner child," Clem Chambers said. "There is a joy and innocence that we often lose as we grow older, and I wanted to capture that feeling with my art.” Zoia Skoropadenko added “I hope that our works will bring a smile to people's faces and remind them of the magic of Paris and the ‘joie de vie’ of being here."

"Blue Boy and Red Boy" will run from May 16st to May 20th at the No 10 Place des Vogues, Paris 75004,  in the heart of the Marais. Admission is free, and all are welcome to attend. Don't miss your chance to experience this unique and captivating art exhibition.

Exhibition is presented by The Meloy Art and Circle of Zoia.
