APPEL D'AIR
Since 2017 – On the scale of Greater Paris
Appel d’air is a participative and environmental work by the artist Thierry Boutonnier, which accompanies the Grand Paris Express construction site until 2030. It is based on the concept of landmark trees imagined by the architects Jacques Ferrier and Pauline Marchetti, according to which each of the forecourts of the 68 stations of the future Grand Paris Express metro will have a remarkable tree, a Paulownia tomentosa, whose spectacular blossoming will constitute a recognition signal for users. Appropriating this plant palette to better reveal it, the artist Thierry Boutonnier makes of these landmark trees the witness trees of a social sculpture that gives back its place to the living and the plant in the development policies of the territories and involves the inhabitants in the transformation of the city. COAL will accompany the project throughout its process from 2017 to 2032.
