In Reply to: Mitterand had to set for himself an monument and... posted by patrickU on November 12, 2002 at 07:54:17:
The Pompidou "masterpiece" is separate and is not intruding on any classical beauty.Yes, of course I saw the piramide, both in person and on the pictures, and no, it is still not growing on me, and I suspect never will.
But then, I have never been a fan of raping the classics. To me Mona Lisa still looks better with no moustache. I love the old architecture too much to see any reason to "improve" it.
To be modern and to be stupid are not the same things.

Well, actually it is all a quesstion oh habits...
The Pompidou, was the old " Les Halles " the heart of the old city of Paris, the very old one.
Romantic as something could ever be, you use to go at the place after a love´s night , taking some soup or oysters, Zola calles Emil, wrote on it....The heart and the belly....
I needed long..long to accept it..And still now I look with distrust...
Romantic is no more what it use to be.Do you know Charles Trenet, by the way ?
***Do you know Charles Trenet, by the way ?Just by name. Perhaps heard some of his songs but would not know.
Think of LA Story...Douce France de mon enfance..You got it ?
