FONDATION LOUIS VUITTON: ART IS EVERYWHERE
In life there some places that generates really specific emotions within you. It can be happiness, peace, anger, sadness… All these emotions are rooted in your memories. Those place can be scary or a sanctuary. Anyway, they stick in your mind.
Personally, I have few of those places located in Paris most are related to my childhood. Maybe I’ll talk about them in future post. I discovered the place I want to talk to you about quite recently. How is it called? The Fondation Louis Vuitton.
Inaugurated in 2014, this art museum is a true architectural masterpiece. You may not like it, but you have to recognize how creative it is. What I like so much about it? It is full of surprises. Yes the exhibitions are exquisite, but would recommend to visit it for the museum itself.
It may sound weird but it is a truly amazing visual experience. There is a rooftop with a superb view of Paris, a restaurant, an auditorium and obviously some major artwork. However, my favorite part is the fountain and the game of light at night, that are surrounding the museum’s foundation. Peaceful.

If you wish to discover this special, here are my advise to enjoy it the most.
#1. Dare to enter the auditorium: It is the only access to the fountain
#2. Listen: The water of the massive fountain is absolutely relaxing
#3. Open your eyes: There is a game of reflections created by mirrors and lights
#4.Take your time: It is only happening at night, so enjoy the magic of the moment.
