Petites Écuries

A concept sketch for an art exhibition in the Petites Écuries (former royal stables) across from the Palace of Versailles. The concept involved suspended cubes in the main hall, open at the top and the bottom, mirrored on the outside, with art objects mounted on the inside; and the art viewed from within the cubes. Felt tip marker on tracing paper, approximately 12" by 12" original size, done in January, 1972. The stables were the location of Unité Pédagogique No. 3, École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts, the architecture school I attended in France.
