Nuit Blanche 2015: the North-West route

Published by · Published on September 30, 2015 at 02:06 p.m.
This year, the Nuit Blanche 2015 invites artists to question the future of the environment, on two routes in the north of the capital. From the Parc Monceau to the Petite Ceinture, we discover 9 astonishing and disturbing works!

The Nuit Blanche 2015 is scheduled for this Saturday, October 3, 2015, from 7pm, in the north of the capital. As soon as the sun sets, Parisians are invited to rediscover a part of the city and the greater Paris, through the presentation of places unknown to Parisians: in the North-West, we discover a new capital, between the Parc Monceau and the Petite Ceinture!

On the program of the Nuit Blanche on the North-Western route:

Nissim de Camondo Museum, 63 rue de Monceau, 75008 Paris

Massimo Furlan invites himself into the square courtyard of the Nissim de Camondo Museum and installs an old-fashioned merry-go-round, evoking celebration and childhood. All night long, 12 thinkers dressed in checkered suits and masks with skulls climb on and off the carousel, stating "truths" about time, death, catastrophes, disappearance...

Parc Monceau, 35 boulevard Courcelles, 75008 Paris

Erik Samakh invests the Parc Monceau and reveals the world of the invisible, the worlds of species affected by global warming: sounds of insects, birds and amphibians - revealed and amplified in the Parc Monceau - make us hear the disturbances that humans are causing to the ecosystems in place.

Place Lévis, 52 rue Lévis, 75017 Paris

On the occasion of Nuit Blanche 2015, a program of short films by artists addressing the world of
the climate and the environment will be presented all night long in an open-air cinema set up on Place Lévis. On this occasion, we will observe a whole forest catching fire, uneasiness guaranteed!

Parc Clichy-Batignolles, 147 rue Cardinet, 75017 Paris

In a building of the Martin Luther King park, strange spiders terrorize the passers-by. As if trapped, they try to escape from the place, running towards the windows!

For this Nuit Blanche, and on the occasion of the COP 21, Daan Roosegaarde gives us a glimpse of a disturbing future. Thanks to an advanced technology, the artist reveals us the consequences of a possible rise of water, a huge blue wave which would cover the Park Clichy!

On this white night, Joris Strijbos and Daan Johan disturb us with an installation that reminds us of the barbed wire at the borders. In the half-light of a forbidden urban site, sixteen arms equipped with leds and sound generators turn frantically around the same axis, plunged in the dark, we have to cross this dark space and discover a disturbing place!

Stéphane Ricordel realizes his greatest dream; before our eyes, he jumps from a cloud, located at 15 meters high. Was it impossible until now?

Music And Nature, The orchestration of the Real

Anne-Laure Chamboissier invites us to rediscover nature in music, through a sensory journey in a tunnel of the Petite Ceinture. Musical anamorphoses of the natural universe, conversations with birds with the help of a flute, extraction of music from nature itself, the sound landscape deployed is just remarkable!

In the heart of the Petite Ceinture, in the depths of a disused tunnel, Michel Blazy offers us another interpretation of the Chauvet cave, contemporary, where life seems to be reborn and with it the hope of another world.

Moreover, 9 OFF projects will be presented in the surroundings of the course. We will soon reveal a selection of the OFF projects of Nuit Blanche 2015!
