Buren meets Gehry at Foundation Louis Vuitton

1/4/2017

Famed conceptual artist Daniel Buren meets Frank Gehry at the Foundation Louis Vuitton in Paris. I wasn’t initially thrilled about the architectural masterpiece getting such a skin treatment, but it has been growing on me. Those translucent colored panels made for interesting effects on the museum’s rooftop structures. Shot on iPhone from the museum's rooftop.
