Plot
This was a priori a more familiar commission as I had lived in Le Havre its actually the only town I know a little And Ive always liked the architecture of Auguste PerretAnnette Haudiquet a curator at the Malraux museum asked me to come to Le Havre She had planned visits to different sites We began with the Perret showapartment accompanied by the guides Elisabeth Chauvin and Pierre Gencey We had lunch I went to their home they also live in a Perret apartment arranged identically to the showapartment And I imagined the two of them with their son Vincent as characters acting as the residents of the showapartment With this first idea I accepted the commission staging them as residents of the apartment when in reality they are the guides between two realities two epochs the apartment that they live in and the one they show to people
