Magnificent Miles Davis exhibition in Paris: only 10 days left

If you want to catch WE WANT MILES, the magnificent Miles Davis exhibition, which has been running in Paris since 16 October, you’d better hurry – it closes on 17 January.

I went soon after the opening and was deeply impressed by the breadth and depth of the exhibits, the quality of the presentation and the nearness you felt to a peerless body of art. For me, it was well worth a special visit to the French capital, from London.

The venue, Cite de la Musique, about 3 miles NE of Notre Dame, is well served by Metro.

If you’re a Miles fan and can’t make it, the catalogue – a thick coffee table paperback (in French) - is a gem.
