From June 21th to October 6th 2026
In his Art Gallery in Toulouse, Antoine Vignault champions a unique selection of contemporary art and collectible furniture. Each piece draws on collective memory, myths, and symbols that transcend time and civilizations. Alongside these timeless pieces are 20th-century antiques, patiently sourced by Emmanuelle Vidal, an antique dealer specializing in design from the 1950s to the 1980s.
Displayed at 2 Place Montoulieu, in the former brick kitchens of a listed 17th-century building, the art and design pieces coexist with the history of the space. Art, design, and photography exhibitions follow one another throughout the seasons, making Galerie OAK a landmark in Toulouse for collectors, architects, and lovers of rare objects.

Céline Wright opens the doors to her new studio for an artistic performance blending light and music. Visitors will discover her *washi* paper creations, suspended in the space as if carried by the breeze. Japanese artist Hiroshi Ueta, visiting specially from Kyoto, will create live calligraphy. The performance will be followed by a jazz concert by the group Géométries Variables (piano, clarinets, and double bass).
