Mystification in Arc-et-Senans: Architecture & Cinema

The exhibition ‘Mystification – Architecture et cinéma’ invites visitors into an immersive visual experience that explores the relationship between architecture and cinema. Through innovative structures and striking facades, architecture utilizes trompe-l’œil techniques to challenge perceptions of space. Meanwhile, cinema employs elaborate sets and special effects to transport audiences to fantastical realms. Each room of the exhibition unveils unique themes, including the historical roots of illusion in architecture and the impact of films like ‘Beauty and the Beast’ on modern design. Guests will engage with impressive architecture models and cinematic sets that defy sight alongside art by Claude Gazier.
