[Covid-19] The collective #ProtègeTonSoignant pays tribute to caregivers with an installation of 500 portraits on the façade of the Bastille Opera house from July 10 to 29, 2020


The solidarity collective #ProtègeTonSoignant is a multidisciplinary team of doctors, medical professors, entrepreneurs, engineers, developers and artists who have joined together to help the caregivers in France overcome the COVID-19 sanitary crisis. 

As a tribute to those who have been at the forefront to fight the pandemic, the collective, in cooperation with the Paris Opera, has imagined the installation of 500 portraits of caregivers exposed on the façade of a place symbolizing both culture and French history: the Bastille Opera house, a building designed by architect Carlos Ott. This work will by exposed from July 10 to 29, 2020. 

The project was conceived in partnership with Inside Out Project (an international participatory art project initiated by French artist JR): https://www.insideoutproject.net/en
