Opus Crimes #70 - ART 42 / Urban Art Museum / Nicolas Laugero Lasserre Collection
Art 42 is the first street art museum in France. Installed in the heart of 42, the computer school founded by Xavier Niel, in the 17th arrondissement of Paris, the museum is free and permanent.
The DNA of urban art is to break codes. By presenting a collection of urban art in a place as unexpected as 42, Nicolas Laugero Lasserre creates a bridge between two worlds, the street and the museum. 42 ranks among the most innovative European computer science schools in the world. A flagship of progressive education, it has become obvious to host an equally daring collection, with works as atypical as the space. Yet contrary to the very idea of a museum, by its nature and its architecture, 42 offers urban art a major showcase.
ART 42 is a museum that isn't really one, in a school that isn't really one...
