“Art without provocation cannot exist,” Serge Gainsbourg.
A UNIQUE EXPERIENCE
A PRIVATE TOUR IN AN INTIMATE SETTING
You enter 5 bis rue de Verneuil in Paris, the historic house where Serge Gainsbourg lived for 22 years. Every room and every object tells a story: his carefully stored white Repetto shoes, his briefcase with his glasses inside, annotated sheet music, photos of his lovers... Guided by the moving voice of his daughter Charlotte Gainsbourg, you explore every corner of this house, which has remained unchanged since his death in 1991. A place where time seems to stand still.
AN OVERVIEW OF HIS WORK
Just opposite this house, a museum opens its doors to his world, offering rare access to his private life. More than 450 objects—manuscripts, works of art, trinkets, clothing, and jewelry—tell the story of his daily life, his passions, and his inspirations. Iconic archives, some of which have never been seen before, are displayed on several screens, allowing visitors to hear Serge himself talk about his life, with each object bearing witness to his unique artistic legacy in French culture.
ATMOSPHERE OVER A DRINK
End your tour at the Gainsbarre, a café-bar inspired by Serge's world. Take a seat, sip a Gibson cocktail, and soak up the retro-chic atmosphere. Here, you'll also find a boutique where every detail—from the jeans he wore to the objects decorating the space—tells a part of his story. It's a special moment to be savored before closing this intimate chapter in the life of the Master.
