After two years of renovations, led by the French artist Xavier Veilhan in collaboration with the architects Bona-Lemercier and the stage designer Alexis Bertrand, Frac Île-de-France, the Paris region’s contemporary art collection, now has a second space in a modernized château in the Parc culturel de Rentilly.
Since the disused building was not listed on the register of Historic Monuments, the team had carte blanche in their restoration and in a radical move covered the entire façade in polished stainless steel mirrors that reflect the surrounding park.
