We are so excited to be working with the Strongin/Collection, as it is a new woman-owned gallery in DC that brings Paris to life here and gives you an exclusive sense of the city.
Paris l’envers du décor : la Tour Eiffel, (Forum des images) take a 360° visit of a Paris full of art and history and an invitation to travel, to discover the hidden side of exceptional Parisian monuments.
Notre Dame de Paris, (Forum des Images) In a 3X3 meters zone, the visitor is invited to look around and take a few steps to admire each perspective of the monument, from the nave to the bell towers, to the sound of its famous Cavaillé-Coll Organ performing J.S. Bach. He will even access places closed to the public, ending with an unexpected hot-air balloon flight over a living Paris. This experience has been shown for the first time at the UNESCO Headquarters on Heritage Days and was part of the South by Southwest Virtual Cinema 2020 selection.
