ON SITE / AVENUE WINSTON CHURCHILL YONA FRIEDMAN
PROJET POUR UN MUSÉE SANS BÂTIMENT, 2017
In partnership with the Musée d’art contemporain de Rochechouart and the Cneai in Pantin; together with the kind support of Philippe Chiambaretta architect and Ars Ultima — Stein & Guillot Art Foundation, the Jérôme Poggi Gallery presents a monumental Iconostase by Yona Friedman, which will be built between the Petit and Grand Palais, at Winston Churchill Avenue. Developed since the 1960’s, these modular architectures, or “Space Chains”, can be developed in nitely, according to a flexible protocol of construction and improvisation. After London, where the Serpentine Gallery invited him in 2016 to build a Summer House, today located in front of Windsor Castle; and Venice, where he built a Mountain during the last Biennale of Architecture; it is in Paris — his adopted city since 1957 — that Yona Friedman will build this Project for a Museum without building, ephemeral and cooperative architecture, made up of thousands of houla houps.
Visitors will be invited to participate in its construction together with a team of mediators, but also to propose images that are dear to them to be changed at this Museum without building.
