“Modernity is the transient, the fleeting, the contingent; it is one half of art, the other being the eternal and the immovable.”
Charles Baudelaire

For each edition Thierry Raspail brings a guest curator to develop the exhibition around a chosen word. This Year's Biennale is called "Floating Worlds" which is a second edition revolving around the word "modernity"

Buckminster Fuller's Radome 1957 and Céleste Boursier-Mougenot's Clinamen v2 are exhibited together in Place Antonin- Poucet as part of the Biennale.
