Still under construction but already iconic, the Triangle Tower embodies a new vision of Parisian architecture. Designed by Herzog & de Meuron, this pyramid of glass and light is part of an innovative ecological and urban approach. Friends of the Centre Pompidou will get an exclusive preview of this bold project, a symbol of the Paris of tomorrow.

Mission Recherche

The Institut Giacometti presents a new exhibition dedicated to the intellectual and artistic friendship between Simone de Beauvoir, Jean-Paul Sartre and Alberto Giacometti. Entitled ‘Beauvoir, Sartre, Giacometti. Vertiginousness of the absolute’, it explores the powerful links that united these three major figures of the twentieth century. Taking a philosophical, literary and artistic approach, the exhibition explores the quest for the absolute in art, thought and life. Combining philosophy, literature and sculpture, the exhibition is structured around major works such as L'Objet invisible (1934), La Main (1947) and L'Homme qui chavire (1950), as well as previously unpublished archives and an evocation of Simone de Beauvoir's bedroom, her living and writing space, located just a stone's throw from the Institut Giacometti. A series of photographs by contemporary artist Agnès Geoffray gives substance to the vertigo.
