Courtesy the Artist et Art : Concept, Paris. Photo Andr\u00e9 Morin<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2012, the Palais de Tokyo reopened its doors after ten months of renovation. Its new configuration makes the Agora a &#8220;central space&#8221; dedicated to being the &#8220;crossroads between exhibitions and visitors&#8221;. With <em>Death of a king<\/em>, Ulla von Brandenburg inaugurates this space, ideally placed under a glass roof, and reveals its new function.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Visitors are invited to enter this monumental, colorful installation, which unfurls on a two-tiered platform, embracing the architectural features of the site. The playful pattern on the floor and walls evokes a harlequin costume, while the U-shaped ramp is reminiscent of a skatepark ramp. A reference to popular theater in the tradition of the Comedia dell Arte, <em>Death of a King <\/em>also echoes the improvised ramps used by skateboarders practicing on the steps in front of the Palais de Tokyo. The installation is a reminder that the skatepark is also a stage on which to perform under scrutiny. The Agora, transformed by Ulla von Brandenburg, becomes an intermediary space between fiction and reality, theater and life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/palaisdetokyo.com\/exposition\/ulla-von-brandenburg\/\">Further information<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In 2012, the Palais de Tokyo reopened its doors after ten months of renovation.
