Moving into such an impressive site, in terms of location and history, entails a form of invention. The space is marked by a different way of doing: a way of conceiving how artists can have maximum power of expression.Jean Nouvel

Interdit au public exhibition

The RATP and the Fondation Cartier are joining forces to offer a series of artistic projects in the Valois gallery. At the moment, the director, screenwriter and writer Alain Guiraudie is exhibiting photos of the construction site of the future Fondation Cartier building on Place du Palais-Royal.
“I’m really curious about construction, about building sites. But they’re always off-limits to the public. I always get told to leave when I try to take a peek.”, Alain Guiraudie.
