Abraham Poincheval

On 14 and 15 June, the Fondation Louis Vuitton and the Jardin d'Acclimatation are organising the Family Festival, a weekend of festivities for families and children, who will be taking over the areas of the Fondation for a variety of events, workshops and tours.
The spectacular installation Walk on Clouds, 2019, by Abraham Poincheval (born 1972) shows, in Gallery 9, the artist walking through the cloud canopy. Suspended in the air, he appears supported by a hot air balloon equipped with drones to capture his movements. The projected film results from this performance. This performance required the artist a total commitment of mind and body, and a risk taking such that this wandering seems to be as much a dream as a sporting feat.
