The modern construction of the museum gives it a cool unfinished vibe. While we love it, the French have differing opinions to the building that officially opened in 1977.
Pino Pascali. Le penne di Esopo, 1968.
Mario Merz. Igloo di Giap, 1968.
Yes, that is Alyssa, and yes, she is wearing cheeta pants. She is also taking a picture of a room installed in the Palais de l'Élysée from 1972-4 by artist Yaacov Agam for President Pompidou. The masterpiece was transferred to the museum in 2000.
Jean Dubuffet. Le Jardin d'hiver, 1968-1970.
The view from the inside of the Pompidou is one of the best in Paris, even on a rainy day.
What to do on a rainy Friday afternoon in Paris with no class? Visit le Centre Pompidou of course! Although we spent nearly the entire afternoon inside taking in all the breathtaking works of modern art, we will for sure be making a second stop back here before our time in Paris is up. After all, it is the largest modern art museum in all of Europe.
