Exhibit presented in Paris by Lafayette Anticipation - Fondation d'entreprise Galeries Lafayette from October 11th to October 23rd, 2016

One year before the opening of its building in the heart of Paris renovated by architect Rem Koolhaas’s agency, Lafayette Anticipation – Fondation d’entreprise Galeries Lafayette presents Faisons de l’inconnu un allié from October 11th to October 23rd, 2016.

More than a simple exhibit, this event embodies the Fondation’s commitment towards contemporary creation and highlights its missions : to produce and to anticipate.

During two weeks, the event will occupy a temporary space located in the Marais. The works, produced by international artists from the fields of contemporary art, design and fashion, have been commissioned by Lafayette Anticipation. This gathering concludes the pre-opening programme begun by the Fondation in fall 2013, while also heralding the inauguration of its building scheduled for fall 2017.
