  • description: Cai Guo-Qiang was commissioned to create One Night Stand (Aventure d'un Soir), a conceptual pyrotechnic "explosion event" for Nuit Blanche, an all-night citywide contemporary art event organized by the City of Paris and was curated by Chiara Parisi and Julie Pellegrin this year. The unprecedented happening took place on the evening of October 5th; through this work, the artist invited Paris to have "une aventure d'un soir" both on the Seine — eternal witness of the romantic history of France — and in front of the Louvre and Musée d'Orsay, which house respectively Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa (La Joconde) and Édouard Manet's Déjeuner sur l'herbe. http://caiguoqiang.wordpress.com/2013/10/07/cai-guo-qiangs-one-night-stand-an-explosion-event-for-nuit-blanche/
