For the MAMO, the French artist has conceived a single piece. A monumental 17m arrow, placed horizontally upon the terrace, pointing towards the gymnasium. “I have made an exhibition for the birds, not for people. This rooftop terrace reminds me of an aircraft carrier, a landing strip for flying saucers, I wish to see it from above”, Raynaud explains. “The arrow, black like a shadow, ponts to the MAMO, containing my treasures, a series of works fundamental to the history of my career: an acceptable form of vanity.”
