March 14: Jeu de Paume (Tennis Court) (it’s an exhibition space in a former tennis court)

A small 19th c. building in the Tuilleries gardens, near the Louvre, with space for two medium-sized special exhibitions of modern or contemporary art. Painfully hip – for example, you leave your coat and bag in a transparent locker in the lobby, so that nobody misses a moment of your totebag from a Swedish book bindery. It’s like P.S. 1, for those of you who comprehend the world by comparing it to various locations in New York City (I’m raising my hand here, while my other hand holds my totebag from a Swedish book bindery). Anyway… go if you’re excited about the special exhibition – otherwise, eh.
