Every year, Paris and its suburbs pull an all-nighter of culture on Nuit Blanche – literally “white night” – when the city hosts a cocktail of art, performance and discovery. This year’s edition, taking place on Saturday, celebrates the melting pot of cultures in French overseas territories from the Caribbean to the Pacific and everywhere in between.
Curator Claire Tancons has spent the afternoon in a warehouse in the northern Paris suburb of Saint-Denis checking the finishing touches to one of the artworks that will be displayed at this year's Nuit Blanche.
