On February 6 and 7, 2024, the Nave of the Musée d'Orsay plays host to Les Apaches, a musical ensemble that likes to mix genres. The orchestra performs several pieces, setting the pace for an unusual performance by free-runners. Johan Tonnoir, Simon Nogueira (French free-run champion) and acrobatic dancer Andrea Catozzi transform the museum's Nave into a giant playground. An unprecedented parkour performance unfolds amidst the works of art, to the rhythm of the music. Movement, space and sound become playgrounds of experimentation for these original artists, who break down the barriers of art.
