Between contemporary art fairs, temporary exhibitions in prestigious venues and permanent installations in several European countries, 2026 promises to be a busy year for Antoine Dufilho<\/a>. From Touquet-Paris-Plage to Silverstone, from Saint-Paul-de-Vence to Luxembourg, his monumental sculptures continue to gain ground. Eight countries, several major fairs, new models on three fronts at once: here’s the complete panorama. <\/p>\n\n

Currently: Le Lavoir de Mougins<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

The year begins with a notable presence at the Lavoir de Mougins, a contemporary art venue anchored in the Alpes-Maritimes village that was long Picasso’s refuge. Antoine Dufilho will be exhibiting his work there from February 27 to March 16, 2026. This is one of the first stages in a calendar that leaves little room for pauses. <\/p>\n\n

Contemporary art fairs 2026<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

Fairs are an important part of Dufilho’s agenda: they enable him to reach collectors and art lovers in a market setting, far removed from the institutional circuit.<\/p>\n\n

Lille Art Up!: March 12 to 15, 2026 <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n

Art Up!<\/a> is Lille’s contemporary art fair, one of the most important in northern France. Antoine Dufilho is a regular: it was here that he unveiled Red Racing Flower, a monumental work inspired by the Ferrari 330 P4, and more recently Gunmetal Symphony<\/a>, his 4.30-meter Porsche 911 in stainless steel tubes. This 2026 edition, from March 12 to 15, marks the start of the fair season for Dufilho. <\/p>\n\n

Art Antibes: March 24 to April 30, 2026<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n

The Antibes Contemporary Art Fair welcomes Antoine Dufilho from March 24 to April 30, 2026. He will be presenting the sculpture 2.7 l RS Vitesse, an original model that illustrates the artist’s new orientation around the concept of kinetic speed. This is the first public presentation of this piece. All theartist’s news is<\/a> available on his website. <\/p>\n\n

Start Strasbourg and Art Basel Miami: dates to be confirmed<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n

Two other fairs are on the 2026 program: Start Strasbourg and Art Basel Miami. The exact dates had not yet been announced at the time of publication of this article. Art Basel Miami, one of the world’s best-attended fairs, would represent Dufilho’s first presence in the United States in this format, a market where he is already represented by galleries in Miami, Dallas and Laguna Beach. <\/p>\n\n

Temporary exhibitions: from Paris to Montreal<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

H\u00f4tel Pullman Tour Eiffel, Paris: June 7 to 30, 2026<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n

In June, Dufilho’s sculptures will make a stopover in Paris, at the Pullman Tour Eiffel Hotel. From June 7 to 30, the hotel will host his creations facing the Eiffel Tower. This is not the first time Dufilho has taken over a Paris hotel of this standing, and the format suits him well. <\/p>\n\n

Ostend, Belgium: date to be confirmed<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n

The Belgian seaside resort of Ostend will host the monumental Porsche 930 Turbo for an exhibition, the exact dates of which will be announced at a later date. Hotel Montreal is also mentioned among the forthcoming exhibition venues, although no exact dates have yet been set. <\/p>\n\n

Permanent installations in Europe<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

In addition to temporary exhibitions, Dufilho has permanently installed sculptures in several European cities. These pieces can be viewed all year round, independently of any special event. <\/p>\n\n

Le Touquet-Paris-Plage<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n

The Pas-de-Calais resort is home to several works by Dufilho. The monumental Ferrari 330 P4 Red Racing Flower<\/a> has been permanently installed in front of the Westminster Hotel since 2020. Measuring 4.60 m long and weighing 1.7 tons, its 100 red-lacquered aluminum slats follow the curves of the original Ferrari 330 P4. The Riva Aquarama and a tubular sculpture complete the ensemble. La Dolce Vita, the artist’s first monumental boat sculpture, has been installed on Monaco’s Promenade des Princes since December 2024: 7 meters long, 5.5 tons, rusted corten steel and mirror-polished stainless steel. Le Touquet has become one of the few places in France where you can see several of Dufilho’s sculptures in the open air, without a ticket. <\/p>\n\n

Other permanent sites in Europe<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n

At the Coligny Museum, the two-tone Cameleon Porsche 910 is on display alongside reduced-scale models. The 910 is one of the few sculptures by Dufilho to play with two colors: painted blue on one side and yellow on the other, it creates a third color through reverberation depending on the angle of view. <\/p>\n\n

In Luxembourg, the Gridx space presents the black Formula 1 and the red 250 GTO, accompanied by smaller models. The monumental Bugatti Type 35 is on display at Sainte-Maxime on the C\u00f4te d’Azur, and at Vila Real in Portugal, created to mark the Type 35’s centenary. In England, the Silverstone circuit hosts a blue version of the Bugatti Veyron monumental. In Spain, at Empuriabrava, a Formula 1 in stainless steel on a corten base completes the network. <\/p>\n\n

New models coming in 2026<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

At the same time, Dufilho is working on a series of new models. On the car side: Ferrari 296 GTB, Porsche GT3 Touring, Porsche Turbo S, 917, 488 Pista, Aston Martin DB7. On the nautical side, he tackles a J-Class, a catamaran, a new Riva Aquarama and a Wally Boat Power 118. They follow in the footsteps of La Dolce Vita and Riva Monumental. On the aviation side: Blackbird, P-38, F-16 and a model called Speedier, continuing the work begun with the Rafale and Concorde. <\/p>\n\n

Also of note is an Aston Martin DB4 GT Zagato in transparent resin, a technical first for the artist. These pieces will be presented over the months on the site’s models page<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n
