Jay-Z will be performing at the upcoming Jean-Michel Basquiat x Andy Warhol exhibit in Paris. Organized by the Louis Vuitton Foundation, the concert will take place on the evening of Friday, April 14.

The rapper hasn’t performed in the city since his 2018 co-headlining tour with Beyoncé, the On The Run Tour II.

Entitled Painting four hands, the exhibit follows the Foundation’s 2018 Basquiat retrospective. This latest show expands on Basquiat’s collaborations with Warhol. Over the course of fewer than two years, the artists worked on around 160 paintings together.

The Foundation describes the exhibition as “the most important exhibition ever dedicated to this extraordinary body of work and brings together more than three hundred works and documents including eighty canvases jointly signed by the two artists.”

Painting four hands has been on view at the Foundation’s Auditorium in Paris since April 5 and will be up until August. Tickets for the Jay-Z concert, meanwhile, are on sale now for €140 EUR ($155 USD).
