The City of Cannes has given contemporary art an address on the Croisette: La Malmaison, its art centre, facing the bay, which the City rents out for events. On avenue de Fiesole, the Villa Domergue was built in 1926 for the painter Jean-Gabriel Domergue; its gardens were laid out between 1926 and 1936, it has been a listed monument since 1990 and today serves as a reception venue for the City. For a private view, Giulia Dal Bon sets her easel in a corner of the room, away from the walls, and the canvas moves forward while guests discover the exhibition. The subject answers the works on show, the place or the music of the evening, and the gallery chooses it with her. For the opening of a shop, a restaurant or a hotel, the page on live painting for an opening or a private view gives all the details.
In Cannes, the big events fill the calendar: MIPIM in March, the Cannes Film Festival in May, the Cannes Lions in June, the Cannes Yachting Festival in September, MIPCOM in October, MAPIC in November. Around each one, the hotels of the Croisette, the villas and the yachts receive their guests in the evening, and a live painting gives the evening a moment the guests take the time to watch, then a canvas that stays with the brand or the host.
Summer has its own event: the Festival d’Art Pyrotechnique, created in 1967, fires its displays above the bay in July and August, six free evenings. Parties take place on the terraces of the Croisette, on the yachts of the Vieux-Port, or on the Lérins islands, Sainte-Marguerite and Saint-Honorat, a fifteen-minute boat ride away. Giulia speaks Italian, French, English and Spanish: guests who come from several countries talk to her in their own language.


For a birthday, a dinner or a family celebration, Giulia Dal Bon paints live in the place you have chosen: a villa in La Californie, a flat on the Croisette, the terrace of a hotel, a private beach, a yacht moored in the Vieux-Port. She paints what makes your evening: the bay seen from the terrace, the Lérins islands, the laid table, the silhouette of Le Suquet, or the guests themselves, in watercolour, each one leaving with their portrait. At the end of the party, the painting is finished and signed, and it stays with you. The page on live painting for a private party presents every format.
For a collection launch, a partners’ dinner or an evening during the Festival, Giulia paints in front of your guests a canvas that tells the story of the brand: the signature product, the material, the logo slipped into the composition, the colours of the house. She studied graphic design at the Brera Academy and draws lettering by hand. The subject is prepared before the day from your references, and you see it on a sketch. The canvas then stays with the brand, with an invoice in the company’s name. For a congress or a seminar at the Palais des Festivals, the page on corporate live painting in Cannes explains everything.
Giulia has already painted live on the French Riviera: during the fête de la musique in Nice, one night of the summer of 2025 by the sea in Menton, and at sunset in Cap-d’Ail, with Orlando at the piano. During a concert, the painting follows the music, piece after piece, and the canvas is revealed on the last note. For an evening that wants a high point, there is the piano and painting show: Orlando & Giulia, Orlando at the piano in a neoclassical repertoire, in the line of Ludovico Einaudi or Hania Rani, and Giulia painting to the rhythm of the music. For a concert or a festival, the dedicated page presents the programme.
For a wedding in Cannes or on the Lérins islands, there is the page on live wedding painting in Cannes and the Lérins islands. Giulia also paints the walls of the city: the mural in Cannes. Around Cannes she travels to Mandelieu-la-Napoule, Théoule-sur-Mer and Le Cannet, and the pages on Nice, Monaco and the French Riviera tell the rest of the coast.
The length is decided with you, from about twenty minutes to a whole evening. Giulia paints in odourless acrylic, on an easel that finds its place on a terrace, in a salon, on the deck of a yacht or at the edge of a beach, with a little light if the evening is at night. She brings the canvas, the colours and the easel, protects the floor around her, and adapts to the rules of the venue. In Cannes as in Nice or Monaco, travel and logistics are agreed together in the quote.
Over several dates. If the format suits you, Giulia comes back: a series of evenings, a whole season or a residency of a few days. The quote is then made for the whole, and you set the dates together.
In Cannes, a live painting starts at 400 €: it is the live performance, at a private view, a private party or a concert, for as long as you like. Watercolour portraits of the guests start at 500 €.

She paints what tells the story of the brand: the signature product, the material, the colours of the house, a hand-drawn logo. Giulia Dal Bon studied graphic design at the Brera Academy.

Yes. Orlando & Giulia present the piano and painting show: Orlando plays a neoclassical repertoire, in the line of Ludovico Einaudi or Hania Rani, and Giulia paints while he plays. It can be given in an auditorium, in a hotel salon, in the garden of a villa or facing the bay. It is prepared with the venue and priced on request.
It is finished and signed at the end of the evening, and it is yours that same evening. For a host, it is a dated memory of the party; for a brand, a canvas that stays in the shop, the showroom or the hotel; for a gallery, a painting of the private view. For a very large format, Giulia Dal Bon finishes the details in her studio, and the delivery date is written in the quote.

Before the day, you choose the format and the subject together, and she prepares the composition if needed. On the day, she paints in front of your guests, and the signed painting is yours the same day. The deposit is paid on confirmation.
