Located on avenue Marceau, the Fondation Pierre Bergé-Yves Saint Laurent comprises two large reception rooms used until recently for presenting and fitting designs by the great couturier. With their three large french windows opening onto the corner of avenue Marcel and rue Léonce Reneau, these two large reception rooms are visible from the street. This configuration has been chosen by Bertrand Lamarche who will be exhibiting here on Nuit Blanche. By setting in motion the two chandeliers suspended from fabric in each reception room, he will create a pendulum effect. Reflected in the mirrors and windows, the light will fragment and give off thousands of bright flashes. Drawn by the glittering light, passers-by will be able to witness this poetic work from the outside, with all its spellbinding power. In collaboration with and on the initiative of the Fondation Pierre Bergé-Yves Saint Laurent
