As part of its contemporary programs, the Louvre has invited twenty young creative figures to present their take on the museum in the form of a 3:30 min film. The “Louvre Looks” initiative brings together creatives under forty – whether they come from the visual arts, poetry, film, experimental music, or fashion. They created new films in the palace itself and thus reconnect with the past of the Louvre – which hosted artist studios even before became a museum. These films go live every Thursday on YouTube. Over the course of twenty weeks, you will be given the opportunity to discover many fresh insights into the Louvre. The first film was conceived by painter Ariana Papademetropoulos and is titled Mon Seul Désir (My Sole Desire). The artist herself appears in a dream: the Salle des États and the Grande Galerie become a dreamscape – a dreamscape that is the museum itself.
