LES BAINS – RÉSIDENCE D’ARTISTES

2013

GALLERY
MAGDA DANYSZ
LOCATION
PARIS
In 2013, Magda Danysz invited some fifty artists to take over Les Bains, the former Bains Douches nightclub in Paris, closed to the public since 2010. For four months the building became a residency and a workshop. Its conversion into a luxury hotel meant that every work would be destroyed. Futura, Invader and Sambre were among the participants. There Thomas Canto created Anamorphic Burst, one of his first interventions to occupy an entire space, walls, floor and ceiling. It was also his first full-scale anamorphosis combined with threads: a burst radiating from a single vanishing point, aligned only from one position. A 192-page book documents the residency.
