The
Wall for Peace
2000 | Paris
TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
The Wall for Peace
also contains thirty monitors
connected to the Internet network. The public of the whole world
can send its messages of peace which will appear on the screens.
"The Wall for Peace
will only take on its true and beautiful
universal dimension with the active involvement of visitors.
And, making use of various languages,
multiple alphabets, as well as international writings, Le Mur pour
la Paix will be enriched by the multiplicity of these languages."
" The glass, the stainless steel
and the exotic wood are meant to serve the pure, symmetric and transparent
space.
Thirty-two columns in stainless steel complete the whole, creating
a space of transition between the natural vegetation of the Champs
de Mars and the place of the wandering and the communication which
gives life to Clara Halter's work."
"Ten years after the fall of the
Iron curtain where messages of revolt legitimately flourished, this
Wall of hope is meant to be open and luminous, ready to favour,
bring value to and encourage all those people whether famous or
anonymous for whom peace is worth every commitment."
Jean-Michel Wilmotte
