Carsten Holler's Giant Triple Mushroom sculpture is meant to engage in dialogue with Place Vendome, symbolizing the square's ongoing evolution as a contemporary art space.
Clement Delepine emphasized that Place Vendome is active and contemporary despite its historical significance, mentioning how the public program highlights these dual aspects.
The history of Place Vendome is rich, having been renamed multiple times and serving different purposes, from celebrating military victories to now being an art gallery.
The square's past, influenced by figures like Duke César and architect Jules Hardouin-Mansart, adds layers to the conversation between past and contemporary art.
