Pont de Bir-Hakeim (Bridge of Bir-Hakeim)
Paris, July 2005

“The Pont de Bir-Hakeim (Bridge of Bir-Hakeim), formerly the Pont de Passy (Bridge of Passy), is a bridge that crosses the Seine in Paris. It connects the 15th and 16th arrondissement, passing through the Île aux Cygnes. The bridge, made of steel, is the second to have stood at the site. It was constructed between 1903 and 1905, replacing an earlier bridge that had been erected in 1878. An arch bridge, it is 237 metres (777 ft) long and 24.7 metres (81 ft) wide. It was designed by the architect Jean-Camille Formigé, who also designed the Viaduc d'Austerlitz, the Jardin des Serres d'Auteuil, as well as the park below the Sacré-Cœur; he also restored the Roman amphitheatre in Arles and the Roman theatre in Orange.” (Pont de Bir-Hakeim, Wikipedia)

“Founded in 1886 in Paris, Fauchon is a French gourmet food and delicatessen company. Fauchon is considered a major reference in contemporary French gourmet foods, and has 81 outlets in operation around the world as of 2019. The founder of the Fauchon brand, Auguste Fauchon, was born in Calvados in 1856. He moved to Paris in 1880, where he began to work as a street vendor, moving on to become a wine and spirits merchant. In 1886, at the age of 30, he opened a fine foods outlet on Place de la Madeleine in central Paris's 8th arrondissement. This first shop still exists, and was totally renovated over a century of expansion and transformation. The quality of the products made by Fauchon and its numerous approved suppliers quickly made it well known internationally, and it came to symbolise French-style luxury. In 1968, French radicals chose to raid Fauchon and distribute foie gras to the poor. During the Second World War, restrictions and rationing made business difficult for the company. Auguste Fauchon died in 1945 and his children sold the company in 1952.” (Fauchon, Wikipedia)

Paris, July 2005

“The Bourse de commerce (Commodities Exchange) is a building in Paris, France, originally used as a place to negotiate the trade of grain and other commodities, now used to provide services to businesses by the Paris Chamber of Commerce. It has its origins in a circular corn exchange built in 1763–67, with an open-air interior court that was capped by an iron dome in 1811. In a major reconstruction in 1888–89 much of the structure was replaced, although the layout remained the same and the dome was retained with modifications. The dome of the building is listed as a historical monument.” (Bourse de commerce, Wikipedia)

“59 Rivoli is an art gallery in Paris, France. Formerly an artist squat that had occupied the space since 1999, it was legalized by the city from 2006 onwards. The venue became known for its parties, exhibitions, and performances. The building at 59 Rivoli was formerly a branch of the Crédit Lyonnais bank. It was abandoned for 15 years before artists took over the six-storey space and began exhibiting art and hosting parties. The building is from the Hausmannian period of urban renewal and growth in the mid-1800s. The 6 spiral staircase in the middle of the building climbs 6 floors, surrounded by brightly colored murals on the walls and floors. In 1999, a group of artists including Gaspard Delanoë squatted the former bank building, which had been abandoned for 15 years. The Council of Paris originally planned to evict the artists but backed down when it received positive media attention. After years of 59 Rivoli being a squat, the city of Paris considered evicting the tenants. City officials discovered in 2001 that more than 40,000 people were visiting 59 Rivoli per year, and it was the third most-visited center or museum for contemporary art in the city. Paris city hall bought the building to convert it to a legal space for art studios and tourism. 59 Rivoli was the first conversion to a legal establishment by the ministry in Paris, but the project has continued since 2006.” (59 Rivoli, Wikipedia)

Fugitive Love

Fugitive Love by Auguste Rodin, 1887
Musée d'Orsay
Rue de la Légion d'Honneur
Quartier Saint-Thomas-d'Aquin, 7th arrondissement
Paris, July 2005

“Fugitive Love is a sculpture by Auguste Rodin made between 1886-1887, both sculpted in marble and cast in bronze. It represents a man and a woman embracing each other on top of a rock. More specifically, the author was inspired by the story of Francesca da Rimini's love affair with Paolo Malatesta, an allusion to Dante Alighieri's depiction of lust on the second circle of Hell in his Inferno. The sculpture is also part of Rodin's monumental group The Gates of Hell, where it can be found in the right gate. Even though the group was already recognized on its own, Rodin decided to put it in his Gates partly to replace another iconic sculpture: The Kiss which had been removed due to its theme being inconsistent with the rest of the group. [Note 1] The sculpture shows a man trying to hold a woman who is trying to escape, whose posture is reminiscent of water or air. This is the ‘fugitive love’. Fugitive Love appeared in the Georges Petit gallery in 1887. There, it was discovered and appreciated by art critic Gustave Geffroy, who wrote: ‘the group presents the impatient and fierce race of a woman who carries at her back, as if chained, her victim, an inanimate and rigid man. The woman's back sinks, the man's torso flattens, his legs dangle and an arabesque of limbs is drawn’. The sculpture was exhibited again at the Georges Petit gallery in 1889, along with the exhibition of impressionist artist Claude Monet. It was so acclaimed that it was reproduced both in white marble and bronze.” (Fugitive Love, Wikipedia)
