The future of statues
On 2024, Thursday 25 January, we attended a remarkable artistic performance at the Musée de l’Orangerie entitled “The Future of Statues”. Directed by artist and filmmaker Charlotte Dauphin and ballet dancer Marie-Agnès Gillot, this performance offered spectators an immersive and captivating experience, with Claude Monet’s famous painting “Les Nymphéas” as the backdrop. The performers, accompanied by violinist Manon Galy, merged their artistic skills to deliver an emotional experience in the heart of the French capital.
Just like Monet’s Water Lilies, the performance captured a moment of beauty and poetry, immortalising the ephemeral in the recollection of a shared moment. As time seems to be speeding up in today’s fast-paced society, this performance invited spectators to slow down, reflect and connect with their senses.
It was a delicate, multi-sensory experience, attended by Saskia de Brauw, India Mahdavi, Elsa Zylberstein, Louise Follain, Sulian Rios, Lorena Vergani and many others.
