Palais de Tokyo

These are pictures from my trip to the Palais de Tokyo when Adel and Mehdi came to visit. The museum itself is situated in a building from the 1930s and the interiors have been modeled to create a "blank slate" for visual artists to show their work. This museum reminded me of Whitney Phillips too much. Luv'd it.

Lamps over the restaurant

Cool shop inside. All the products were in refrigerators!

Someone fulfilled my childhood dream of setting up tubes from drive-thru banks all over a room- you could watch it "work it's magic" for hours.

Furniture in the lounge...

...and a bit more.

Adel!

Mehdi!

The boxes were interesting. Created in the 1970s, the artist wanted to create a shape-shifting piece that could be displayed as a series, or alone....

This piece was cool! It had a motorcycle on each side so that if you tried to "drive" it, it would go in circles.

This "halfpipe" was in front of a projection screen that was showing a movie on the history of skateboarding. Really cool!
