In 1989, architect Dominique Perrault, aged only 36, was the winner of the international competition. After the Grand Louvre, the Opéra Bastille and the Institut du monde arabe, this new project located outside of Paris historic districts completed the policy of large public works projects led during the two seven-year terms of François Mitterrand. The architect’s mission was to create ‘a symbolic place for Paris and a library for France’, a place open to all, which is both a public area for passing through and the beginning of an initiatory journey. -

AN “ODOR OF SANCTITY”: THE ICONOGRAPHY, MAGIC, AND RITUAL OF EGYPTIAN INCENSE Elliott Wise ragrance has permeated the land and culture of Egypt for millennia. Early Fgraves dug into the hot sand still contain traces of resin, sweet-smelling lotus flowers blossom along the Nile, Coptic priests swing censers to purify their altars, and modern perfumeries export all over the world.1 The numerous reliefs and papyri depicting fumigation ceremonies attest to the central role incense played in ancient Egypt. Art and ceremonies reverenced it as the embodi- ment of life and an aromatic manifestation of the gods. The pharaohs cultivated incense trees and imported expensive resins from the land of Punt to satisfy the needs of Egypt’s prolific temples and tombs. The rise of Christianity in the first century ce temporarily censored incense, but before long Orthodox clerics began celebrating the liturgy in clouds of fragrant smoke. -

Press Release DPA New Longchamp Racecourse
Dominique Perrault Architect NEW LONGCHAMP RACECOURSE press contact for Dominique Perrault: Charlotte Jean [email protected] DOMINIQUE PERRAULT ARCHITECTURE 6, rue Bouvier 75011 Paris, France +33 (0)1 44 06 00 00 www.perraultarchitecture.com www.dpa-x.com LE NOUVEAU LONGCHAMP, PARIS, 2011-2017 DOMINIQUE PERRAULT ARCHITECT Aerial view Visuel disponible / Picture available for press use © Dominique Perrault Architecte / L’autre Image / Adagp 2 THE NEW LONGCHAMP RACECOURSE The renewal of the Longchamp racecourse should ensure that it maintains its place in both the Grand Paris and on the international scene of the world’s major racecourses. Such an ambitious goal must be guided not only by an emblematic architectural project that can be adapted to future needs, but also a landscape project that transfigures the area, highlighting the built legacy, the historical heritage of the racecourse, and especially the green heritage of the Bois de Bou- logne, which originated in the composition designed by Alphand in the 19th century. The race for the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe is the highpoint of the life of the racecourse. Therefore, the main challenge of this project is for it to be able to host this event, which draws up to 60,000 spec- tators, under exceptional conditions, while also welcoming a much smaller crowd on ordinary racing days. This is why the project proposes to deconstruct all the stands dating from the 1960s and to replace them with only one stand, which is both more compact and more functional. Buildings housing support services for the horse races, which are currently scattered around the site, will also be demolished and rebuilt in the form of pavilions. -
