Another striking art installation from the FIAC/ Hors Les Murs 2019 is Environnement de Transchromie Circulaire by artist Carlos Cruz-Diaz. Located on the Tuileries side of Place de la Concorde, the circular structure from 2017 features overlapping, vertical multi-color panels made of transparent plexiglass. There’s an opening on one side of the sculpture and once I stepped in, it was a great opportunity to photograph the iconic Parisian sites through the myriad of the colored panels.
Carlos Cruz-Diaz was born in Venezuela in1923 and died in Paris earlier this year. He was based in Paris since 1960 and his work is featured in the most prominent museums and galleries in the world including Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), New York, Tate Modern, London, Musée d’Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris, Centre Pompidou, Paris, Museum of Fine Arts, Houston and Wallraf-Richartz Museum, Cologne.
Environnement de Transchromie Circulaire is standing until October 31.
