The great troublemakers of the contemporary art scene, Elmgreen & Dragset, have been invited to place their poetic sculptures in dialogue with the Musée d’Orsay’s iconic scultpure nave.

Their exhibitions always lie at the intersection of performance, space and sculpture. The presentation they have created specifically for Musée d’Orsay will have the visitor dive into a museum upside down.


The artists have conceived a radical architectural intervention entitled “L’Addition”, which is unlike anything the museum has ever shown. While challenging modes for displaying artworks, the duo will present a series of new figurative sculptures. These works will depict various topics linked to contemporary masculinities in close dialogue with the museum’s historical permanent collection, highlighting the similarities and differences in artistic approaches to figuration.
