Paris, May 22 (EFE) .- (Camera: Martí Rodríguez) An immersive experience in the work of Salvador Dalí and Antoni Gaudí, dressed with music by Pink Floyd, can be seen at the Atelier des Lumières in Paris from May 19, the day that the museums of France recovered their activity after more than six months of closure due to Covid-19 restrictions.FOOTAGE FROM THE EXHIBITION SOUNDBITES BY JACQUES DE TARRAGON, DIRECTOR OF THE ATELIER DES LUMIÈRES MUSEUMTRANSLATION: 1. "What we want is to present and offer visitors great names in the history of art. We did a first major exhibition dedicated to Klint, another to Van Gogh, and another with various artists such as Monnet, Renoird, Chagall and many others. ... and we wanted to open up this field a little bit and propose to propose an artist a little more crazy, mystical, who worked with his imagination ". 2. "For those who already know Dalí it is a new prism. In fact, the Atelier des Lumières is a bit unique, as a concept: you stay 40 minutes in the room to watch the works parade, cheer up, they are synchronized with the music. It is a totally different experience than what one can find in a classical museum. " 3. "Pink Floyd is a group that take you on a trip. That allows one to dream, escape ... It seemed to us that there was such a link between their music and Dalí's work that we said to ourselves:" It's ideal. "And in fact one realizes that It works very well, the recipe is perfect. We tried other bands, but none of them fit the bill like Pink Floyd. "
Drone footage captured the moment as an unidentied snowboarder daredevil in St. Petersburg, Russia ripped through the Russian cultural capital's famed Palace Square on Thursday towed by car, cruising through the snow around the famous Alexander Column. Heavy snowfall in St. Petersburg made it all possible as nearly nine inches of snow fell on the city, causing major traffic problems in the northern city of over 6 million inhabitants. The young man was pulled by a car at high speed through the nearly-empty square at nighttime, ripping through the snowfall with tight corners and spins right in front of the Hermitage Museum. Police were watching nearby, making sure that no harm came to the snowboarder or any of Saint Petersburg's cultural landmarks.
