"The exhibitions in the Espace Musées follow on from each other
but each is unique. This is what makes this new space for the
promotion of French cultural heritage attractive. We wish to
surprise and amaze passengers from all over the world when they
pass through Paris-Charles de Gaulle airport", explained Augustin
de Romanet, Chairman and CEO of Aéroports de Paris.
The Hourloupe Cycle is undoubtedly the longest and richest
period from the work of Jean Dubuffet, painter, sculptor, and 20th
century French visual artist. The word "Hourloupe", coined by the
artist himself, refers to a series of artworks whose principal
characteristic is that they are totally… impossible to
categorize!
Passengers will have the chance to discover paintings,
sculptures, and models of monumental sculptures created by Jean
Dubuffet. All of the exhibited works are on loan from the Dubuffet
Foundation, created by the artist 40 years ago.
Access to the Espace Musées, located in the international zone
of Terminal 2E (Hall M), is free of charge and open to all from the
first flight of the day to the last. Each year, two themed
exhibitions will be presented to passengers.
