French Touch

A site-specific scenographic device
Exhibition set design

The "French touch / Graphisme, Vidéo, Electro" exhibition took place in the Galerie de la Publicité at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris. Designed by Jean Nouvel, this gallery consists of an unfinished space made up mainly of metal panels. These became the support for the scenography, which consists of galvanized metal cubes the size of 33 rpm records. It comprises over 400 elements to accommodate the vast selection of vinyl records, CDs, leaflets, and posters on display: magnets are used as a hanging tool, participating in a site-specific scenography designed from existing materials.
