Palais de Tokyo presents a group exhibition in Chicago in partnership with the Institut français and EXPO CHICAGO, alongside the Chicago Architecture Biennial, with the participation of the DuSable Museum of African American History, Mana Contemporary Chicago, the Graham Foundation and The Cultural Services of the French Embassy.
The exhibition, which brings together thirteen artists, including a designer, amidst one of Chicago’s iconic buildings, explores the multiple relationships between art and architecture. It is being presented in an architectural masterpiece, which is strongly rooted in the city’s history and will be reopening to the public for the first time for many years: The Roundhouse. At the heart of this remarkable edifice, the show creates an intimate dialogue between original productions and pre-existent works. A selection of the onsite pieces, conceived and produced specifically for this event by guest artists in dialogue with the architectural envelope that surrounds them, distinguish themselves by providing a support, or a frame, for the works of other artists, while being artworks themselves.

Palais de Tokyo’s “Singing Stones,” curated by Katell Jaffrès,
brings together 11 emerging artists from both the French and Chicago art scenes, as part of the first off-site exhibition in the United States, in
partnership with the INSTITUT FRANÇAIS. Presented within The
Roundhouse—a 17,000 sq. ft space built in 1881 and designed by
Burnham & Root—at the DuSable Museum of African American History, the exhibition will present an intimate dialogue between original productions and pre-existing works.
