Villa des Arts, Artists' studios complex in Grandes-Carrières, Paris, France.

The Villa des Arts contains fifty individual artists' studios within a 45-meter-long private road adjacent to Montmartre cemetery in northern Paris.

Built in 1888 by architects Desmichel and Gueret with Henri Cambon, the complex incorporated architectural elements from the 1900 World Exhibition pavilions.

This location provided workspace for renowned painters Paul Cézanne, Paul Signac, and Raoul Dufy during the late nineteenth century artistic movement.

The entrance to Villa des Arts is located at 15 Rue Hégésippe-Moreau, with regular exhibitions held in the gallery space throughout the year.

The site maintains its original nineteenth-century configuration, featuring a main staircase salvaged from the 1900 World Exhibition structures.
