Installation

Harry Nuriev uses art and design to imagine new relationships with everyday items. Central to his practice is his philosophy of “Transformism”, which is rooted in the idea of creating something unexpected from existing objects. Objets Trouvés is an interactive installation of neatly arranged supermarket boxes filled with miscellaneous items. Visitors are invited to bring objects they no longer need and trade them for others in the bins. Each transaction generates a certificate, and at the exhibition’s end, the entire process will be compiled into a directory-style publication. By turning cast-offs into curated artifacts, Nuriev challenges conventional ideas of value, inviting reflection on what we keep, discard, and share.

Students from the École du Louvre are available every day from October 21 to 26 to provide visitors with information.

Open from October 21 to 26, 10am to 7pm. Free access.
