Contemporary artists at the Louvre
[photopress:Louvre_1.jpg,full,pp_image]
In 2003 the Louvre adopted a new policy of openness to contemporary art, with the aim of offering a fresh perspective on the museum’s collections, while revitalizing the debate on artistic creation and creating links between the past and the present. From April 4 to June 25, 2007, in the sculpture department, the Louvre presents the third edition of this programme called Counterpoint. On this occasion, the Louvre will accomodate eleven artists from the contemporary art scene, including Luciano Fabro, Giuseppe Penone, Richard Deacon, Robert Morris and Anish Kapoor.
