Magazine PALAIS #29

Artists, fashion designers, filmmakers, musicians, DJs, tattoo artists, experimenters: about fifty creators coming from Dhaka, Lagos, Manila, Mexico City and Tehran are investing the Palais de Tokyo which has become an imaginary city, multiple and complex, open, messy, thundering and creative.
