Immersive Installations

The Palais de Tokyo in Paris is France's largest contemporary-art venue, operating without a permanent collection and devoting its 22,000 m² of raw concrete halls to large-scale immersive installations by leading younger and mid-career artists. Since opening in its current form in 2002, it has hosted season-long takeovers by Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster, Philippe Parreno, Tomás Saraceno, Olafur Eliasson, and Anne Imhof, each transforming the building into a single sensory environment. It was arguably the institution that defined the immersive-installation idiom of early 21st-century European contemporary art.
