Installation on the Pont Neuf in Paris: a walkable cave as a tribute to Christ

The installation 'La Caverne du Pont Neuf' by artist JR has opened on Paris's Pont Neuf bridge. The artwork is a 120-meter-long inflatable cave-like structure made of fabric, designed to resemble a rocky landscape using white, black, and gray tones. It serves as a tribute to artists Christo and Jeanne-Claude, who previously wrapped the same bridge in 1995. The project was funded entirely through the sale of JR's artworks and private donations, without public funding. The installation includes a soundscape created by former Daft Punk member Thomas Bangalter and will remain open until June 28.
