We are honored to have been featured in Monaco Tribune with our founder, Alisa, interviewed about The French Riviera Art Guide — a concept we first developed in Scandinavia and have now brought to the Mediterranean.

The idea behind the guide is simple: to make art more accessible, enriching, and meaningful — whether you’re exploring it for a single day, planning a road trip, or beginning a deeper, lifelong connection with art.

From Scandinavia to the Côte d’Azur

The project first took shape in Norway, where we launched a digital art guide to help people discover museums, galleries, and cultural experiences across the country. It has become a trusted summer companion and a source of inspiration for many Norwegians over the recent years.

Building on that success, we expanded the concept to the French Riviera. With its extraordinary artistic heritage — Monet in Antibes, Renoir in Cagnes-sur-Mer, Matisse and Chagall in Nice, Picasso in Antibes — the region was a natural next step.

Why the French Riviera?

For over 160 years, the Côte d’Azur has inspired artists and collectors alike. Its light, landscapes, and history have made it one of the great cultural crossroads, rivaling Paris and New York. Our guide brings this heritage into focus for today’s explorers, highlighting both world-class institutions and hidden gems.

Accessible to All

Just like in Scandinavia, the French Riviera Art Guide is free and available in English. It’s designed as a resource for everyone: locals rediscovering their own region, international visitors seeking deeper cultural experiences, and collectors who want context and inspiration.

Looking Ahead

Being featured in Monaco Tribune is both an honor and an affirmation that this work matters. The mission remains the same: to bring art within everyone’s reach, spark curiosity, and encourage meaningful encounters with culture.
