Monster Face Facade, Paris — Modernist Building with Installation Art

4 October 2017 · Paris

A large modernist building in Paris wearing a face it didn't ask for. Two circular eye motifs — gold rings around deep blue centres — flank either side of a glazed atrium, while a jagged triangular 'mouth' installation below completes the expression. The blue steel truss superstructure running across the roofline reinforces the geometry. Architecture as serious civic infrastructure; the face as accidental graphic wit — both true at the same time.
