The French Riviera is world-famous for its stunning coastline, glamorous lifestyle, and iconic destinations like Saint-Tropez, Nice, Cannes, and Menton. But beyond the beaches and luxury boutiques, the region is also one of Europe’s most vibrant hubs for art and culture.

 

Long considered a magnet for artists and art lovers, the French Riviera has nurtured an extraordinary cultural legacy for over 160 years. From the light that inspired Renoir and Matisse to today’s thriving contemporary scene, this compact region offers world-class art experiences and some of the most celebrated collections in the world.

 

Yet for many – both travellers and locals – navigating this artistic richness can be overwhelming. To help demystify the region’s cultural landscape, The Art Trotter has launched the French Riviera Art Guide 2025: the only mobile-optimised, English-language guide of its kind.

 

 

Covering the coastline from Menton to Saint-Tropez, the guide presents 45+ carefully selected art experiences, including museums, private collections, sculpture parks, artist homes, and hidden gems.

 

In addition to personalised and engaging recommendations, it includes a digital art map for seamless planning, inspiration for road trips and art escapes, and a mobile-friendly format designed for use on the go.

 

Inside the guide, you’ll find:

  • 45+ curated art destinations – including world-class museums, private collections, and artist homes
