If anyone can turn Paris upside down and inside out, it’s world-renowned designer Philippe Starck. Given carte blanche by the Carnavalet History of Paris museum, Starck revisits the City of Light with a bold and bizarre exhibition “Paris is pataphysical”.
Starck was born and bred in Paris. Legend has it that he once played truant to get out of school and took to hiding in the Carnavalet museum where he began sketching. Paris was and still is his playground; a place of concrete reality offering amazing escapism and never-ending inspiration.
