ArchitectureDesignArtOpen until 7pmFreeRambuteau (Metro 11)

A Lafayette Anticipations é a fundação de arte contemporânea do grupo Galeries Lafayette, inaugurada em 2018 num edifício industrial do século XIX no Le Marais, transformado por Rem Koolhaas e pela OMA. A sua marca distintiva é uma torre de vidro e aço de 19 metros com plataformas expositivas motorizadas, que podem ser reconfiguradas de 49 formas diferentes. Mais do que um museu de coleção, funciona como uma kunsthalle voltada para a produção, encomendando e apresentando novas obras nos campos da arte contemporânea, do design e da moda. A entrada nas exposições é gratuita, e o espaço oferece ainda uma programação de performances e conversas, um ateliê de fabricação in loco, uma livraria e o café-restaurante Pluto.
