Palais de Tokyo

ArtOpen until 10pmFrom €13Iena (Metro Line 9)

Instal·lat a l'ala oest d'un monumental edifici Art Deco de 1937 que dona al Sena, el Palais de Tokyo és el principal referent de França per a la creació contemporània i un dels espais més grans d'aquest tipus a Europa. No compta amb col·lecció permanent; en canvi, dedica les seves vastes sales de formigó, deliberadament inacabades, a un programa rotatori d'exposicions temporals, instal·lacions i performances ambicioses. Una reforma de 2012 a càrrec dels arquitectes guanyadors del Pritzker Lacaton i Vassal va obrir uns nivells inferiors cavernosos, i l'espai és conegut per romandre obert fins ben entrada la nit.
