The colours glow in a wild dance. A monument to modernity rises up in front of me: Le Moretti, the ventilation tower, a work by the artist Raymond Moretti that reflects the soul of the city of Paris in its boundless creativity. The coloured metal tubes stretch metres high into the sky, as if they had the power to lift the city beneath them and release it into colourful freedom.
Red, blue, yellow, green - the tubes unite to form a pulsating work of art that radiates an explosion of life and movement in the steel austerity of the La Défense office district. No beginning, no end, just an endless flow of colour that almost makes you forget the grey concrete and glass all around.
Here, in Europe's largest office block district, where functionality and efficiency reign supreme, this work of art breaks out of the monotony, a sign of playfulness, of human creativity that has fought for its place amidst the hustle and bustle of business. Every glance at the colourful tubes tells of individuality, of the beauty that lies hidden even in the technical structures of our time.
Le Moretti - a work of art that lets the city breathe, loudly and quietly at the same time. A colourful echo that is reflected in the urban landscape of Paris, France and Europe and never really stands still.
