The work of art is perfectly embodied in this work. After the entrance, a detour through the first gallery of exhibitions, including the critical work of Martial Raysse, leads to the discovery of the central and circular space of the exchange. Urs Fischer's Abduction of the Sabine women, a wax replica of Giambologna's work, slowly burning in the middle of the space, amplifies the vision between earth and sky. Tadao Ando's minimal concrete architecture sublimates the building, its 29-meter diameter and 9-meter high cylinder opening the view to the glass roof reflecting the Parisian sky.
