Ernesto Neto's installation at Pantheon

Some words from Katherine Converse  - I was too overwhelmed to be very coherent :)

Ernesto Neto'sPanthen miraculous transformation of the Pantheon, the classical bastion of French Culture, is not to be missed! The monumental free-form, fabric installation is the perfect complement to the cold, imposing, marble interior. Light, gauzy, pendulous blobs droop and sway from the heights. Soft, organic shapes - as uplifting and soulful as fantasy cobwebs - are the perfect antithesis to the stark, geometric space. The duality of life-death, nature-culture, spirit-reason, laughter-silence play back and forth as Foulcault's pendulum swings silently in the center, leaving you with renewed philosophical musings. A profoundly moving experience!
