This December, as a sequel to last year’s Bazar, Annankatu 9 becomes the number one address for some of the most magical and thoughtful gifts. Lokal Bazar brings together a selection of artists’ works on paper, paintings, sculptures, wall reliefs, textile works and photographs; a hybrid of a market and an exhibition of accessible art, with all pieces priced under 500 euros.

Lokal x Roots (Racines) at Institut finlandais in Paris 7.11.2025 – 21.2.2026
In dialogue with the exhibition Pekka Halonen, an Ode to Finland presented at the Petit Palais Museum, Institut finlandais has invited artists and creatives from different fields to create together an ambitious programme, for an exceptional season exploring the themes of the emblematic painter’s work. Roots, an exhibition by renowned Finnish visual artist Kustaa Saksi, is runs in the main gallery at Institut finlandais, Lokal having curated the adjacent exhibition in the boutique space.

In this iteration of Correspondences at Lokal, the artists engage with nature through the work of their hands, allowing different experiences of time and place to overlap and intertwine within a shared space. As they quietly respond to one another—through gazes, gestures, and unspoken dialogue—the exhibition becomes a momentary commune, where enduring relationships from distant places gather briefly and tenderly.
